Although this could be brought as a proposal to the FPC, I do not think it
would pass.  The macros greatly aid package maintainers to do their job more
efficiently at a cost of only slightly more complex spec files.

On a similar note, I don't think we even have a current rule about
conditionals for non-Fedora-family (OpenSuse, mandriva, etc) packages.  (If
someone thinks we do and can find a link to it, pleases point it out to me.
I wanted to refer to it a few weeks ago because I thought it was something
we carried over from fedora.us days but I was unable to find it.)
