Or, alternatively, this set should be the same that works in option helpers.

Flavors are similar to options, therefore helper variables should be the same or close to that.

For example, the flavor might be for building some package with plugins:
> FLAVORS=default withplugins
> withplugins_CONFIGURE_ARGS=--with-plugins
> withplugins_PLIST_FILES= lib/x/plugin1.so lib/x/plugn2.so

The example you are giving is not flavors related but subpackages.

I don't feel like we should be adding helpers for now until we know which way this needs to go.
