Another downside: in Cargo-land, the leaf package declares what
‘features’ (= configure flags for enabling things) it requires from
dependencies.  This works because Cargo can recompile dependencies.
In antioxidant, recompiling dependencies would defeat the point of
antioxidant.  So if there's a non-default feature to enable, the
packager needs to manually enable that feature in the package
definition of the dependency.

Greetings,
Maxime.
