I concur.  There is nothing hard: generate a package, run ls -l on it, and
set the correct size.  I've done that for many heavy game ports before, but
often people who came after me "fix" it (e.g.: games/nexuiz used to provide
package size and I've updated it on every release, but now it simply tells
something totally bogus as "MANUAL_PACKAGE_BUILD=huge").

I'm even thinking about some knob in b.p.m. that if being set, e.g.:

HUGE_PACKAGE_SIZE=	xxxMB

it will set

NO_PACKAGE=	Package will be xxxMB, set FORCE_PACKAGE if you really want it
