Note that even in KDE there isn't consensus on whether to rely on this in 
the non-short term:

 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.core/80233/focus=80241

I don't see any particular reason to get it into 2.8.12. From the KDE 
perspective, I think it would be more useful to get a CMake version with 
ALIAS targets and double-colons-means-IMPORTED.

My preference is for 2.8.12 to be out soon and get those features into 
2.8.13. 

When do you want to create 2.8.12 RC1?

Thanks,

Steve.
