Cool!

I'm wondering, what do you think about Vegard's 'warn about complex
selects' feature for kconfig which he submitted some time ago:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/4/13

That's a really sore kconfig spot we have. It's not a bug, but it
sure bites people again and again, and it would be nice to have some
built-in mechanism that gently nudges us away from complex selects.
(many of which are inadvertent or become complex after the fact)

Ingo
