Nice.

The MODULE keyword warning suggests using NO_MODULE which does not
make sense (but it does for CONFIG of course).  Perhaps for MODULE
it can just warn about the min required version.

I'll perform a more detailed review after that is fixed.

Thanks, that is good for manual reference.  Eventually I'd like
to see a real test that verifies the output for each case.  I
think the Tests/CMakeOnly directory is a good place along with
the PASS/FAIL_REGULAR_EXPRESSION test properties.  We can look
at adding such tests separately after the main topic is done.

Thanks,
