This would only make sense if applicable to the port itself, not its
dependencies...

There is an example in the Handbook, that explicitly talks about shared library
bump of a dependency, but, according to the example provided there, that does
not apply to non-default options:

> someone trying to install the old package after installing a newer version

this would not happen with official binary packages (because they don't link
with libx265).
