Well, for true flexibility, I would implement something like printf
format. But that would be overkill.

They are read by human, i.e. ebuild developers, and uptream developers
too when they are submitted upstream (which is great because if
upstream uses Git, you don't have to do anything else). Plain patches
are enough for portage, other information is for human ;-)
