    The problem with expressing every last dependency is that you'll
    end up hiding too much.

    A less intrusive approach that doesn't require changes to the
    current configuration framework may be to add a section
    "Warnings" at the end, under which some pseudo-options would be
    enabled if some unusual combinations are found (e.g. CD-ROM
    drivers but no ISO9660 file system, PC architecture but no
    keyboard, etc.)
