Thanks for sharing, this is an interesting approach!  But it may raise a
major challenge.  The point of parameters is that they must compose
(e.g. headless + static-lib), so can we do that with the "modificator"
approach?

Say for instance that 2 parameters in particular are not compatible for
a given package, how to we handle that?

This probably needs more thoughts! :)
