I don't think you've actually argued the case why one USE flag with
three, perhaps four modes (off, fmod, libmodplug, and perhaps default)
is preferable to two USE flags with two modes each (fmod and modplug,
both refering to the libs a package links to, either on or off).
Besides, could you explain why are you trying to hijack a short and
simple thread about globalising one or two USE flags?
Kind regards,
