Great.

Like I said I haven't thought in depth about it.  There are a lot of
complicating factors like this.  Right now we just punt and ask projects
to do their own thing.  Each <pkg>Config.cmake file can load the exports
file from itself and do find_package() to load the config/exports of its
outside dependencies.
