IMHO that would be a perfectly fine short-term solution. 
The question is if that solution will be cherry-picked to the stable release 
with a subsequent updated release.

I made it working for my machine (OS-X, suite-sparse, Homebrew, etc), 
so I am not that dependent on the presence of the solution.
But it seems there are more people who would like to have that flexibility.

The only downside is that if someone inexperienced messes up with it then 
there ain’t gonna be warning/errors at CMake stage, but rather at compilation time, i suppose.

Best regards,
Denis.
