Would it be useful for other users/distros to do that two-stage
approach as well?

In other words, if the intended end state is that everybody should
enable this if Rust is enabled, and nobody should enable it if they
don't care about Rust, then we should add this only if you think
others will also need to do this step by step. The option or commit
message could ideally explain more about this need/use case.

Cheers,
