Is there a particular reason for sorting the option before the main package?

Thanks for linking this @kenodegard - I think it would be awesome to have syntax like package[*args, **kwargs], which can be used both for optional package extensions à la pip (*args) as well as build variants (**kwargs; e.g. gpu=None, gpu=cuda)
