Speaking with my p7zip maintainer hat on, I don't have anything to add
to the proposal (any kind of change wouldn't involve that port anyway).

As a user, though, I don't really see this being really necessary (dunno
if there's some documentation policy with regards to recommending ports
software in a base man page). 7zip itself is a Windows program, p7zip is
done by a guy who looks at the 7zip code after it's released and tunes
it to run on Unix.

In the end, it's Julian's call IMO.
