per-subsystem subsystemInfo definition/parser?

[wmertens]

It feels weird to let subsystemInfo be handled by translator only, especially since there can be many translators, passing settings to the builder is arbitrary, and I guess the discoverer can't see them?

How about a per-subsystem settings module that defines the flags and optionally transforms them?

Then they could also be made available to the overrides?

Sounds good. Sounds like a use case for nixos modules.

Then they could also be made available to the overrides?

If we were using nixos modules for our interfaces including for configuring individual packages, there won't be a need of overrides anymore.

Right - I think the modules idea is good, let's discuss in #156
