Just a small thing:
I'm slowly converting a few of the FindFoo-modules from kdelibs to the new 
Config-style.
E.g. for automoc4 our FindAutomoc4.cmake looks (basically) like:

set(_FIND_QUIETLY ${Automoc4_FIND_QUIETLY})
find_package(Automoc4 QUIET NO_MODULE)
set(Automoc4_FIND_QUIETLY ${_FIND_QUIETLY})

include(FindPackageHandleStandardArgs)
find_package_handle_standard_args(Automoc4  DEFAULT_MSG  AUTOMOC4_EXECUTABLE)


The slightly ugly thing is the saving and restoring of the 
Automoc4_FIND_QUIETLY variable. 
I want to call find_packlage( NO_MODULE) with quiet, otherwise the user sees 
the verbose built-in error message if no Config-file was found. But I don't 
want this, since I just want the standard error message from 
FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake and even if the Config-mode fails, I 
could still have my own handling and do some other searching. 
Because of this I want to use QUIET for the NO_MODULE, but still want to 
_FIND_QUIETLY variable as the user put it for the outer FindFoo.cmake file.

So, I think it would be nice if find_package(NO_MODULE) would restore the 
FIND_QUIETLY variable to the state it was before (as I'm doing here 
manually).
