That's what I want to be working on.
Global dependencies... CML1 doesn't have this now, and it needs never to have it. This is no point in merging a design change of that magnitude only to take it away later on. Further, merging a rulebase which contains such dependencies would be a huge mistake that might take years to undo. drivers/net/rules.cml doesn't need S/390 stuff in it, AFAICT, and that is a simple example of a bug found in many of the rules.cml files.
