Once again, could you please explain what you do not like about OPTIONS?
If you need to reconfigure the port at some point, there's "make config"
for this purpose.  Otherwise, it conveniently saves your port
configuration between upgrades.  Moreover, this is a standard practice in
FreeBSD Port Tree.

As I said earlier, it does not hurt to have it: there's no extra
dependency, and this simplifies things for people.  If you could provide
me with example when using this option is the only way to solve some
real problem, I'll rethink adding it back.
