V2: couple of queries

Hi,

Is it possible to redefine the default values for features? For 
instance, I would like rtti off without having to have an rtti-off 
subdirectory in my build.

Also I want to have a 'design' set of builds and a 'non-design' set. 
All the design build will do is add <define>DESIGN but I'd like to 
have a 'design-on' subfolder appear in my build tree then, much like 
the <rtti> or <link> features do. Is there any way to accomplish 
this?

My current workaround (which achieves mostly the result i want) is 
this:

variant defdebug : debug : <link>static <rtti>off ;
variant defrelease : release : <link>static <rtti>off ;
variant designdebug : defdebug : <define>_DESIGN ;
variant designrelease : defrelease : <define>_DESIGN ;
variant dx9debug : defdebug : <toolset>msvc ;
variant dx9release : defrelease : <toolset>msvc ;
variant dx9designdebug : designdebug : <toolset>msvc ;
variant dx9designrelease : designrelease : <toolset>msvc ;
variant pspdebug : defdebug : <toolset>pspsnc ;
variant psprelease : defrelease : <toolset>pspsnc ;
variant pspdesigndebug : designdebug : <toolset>pspsnc ;
variant pspdesignrelease : designrelease : <toolset>pspsnc ;

project GameEngine
: build-dir bin
: requirements
<include>c:/dev3rdparty/boost_1_31_0 
<toolset>msvc:<include>c:/dxsdk/include 
<toolset>msvc:<define>PLATFORM_DX9 
<toolset>pspsnc:<include>c:/sce/psp/include
<toolset>pspsnc:<define>PLATFORM_PSP	
: default-build 
dx9designdebug
;

I'm sure there must be a better way to do this? :)

Regards
Matt
