Our build currently has a *lot* of options, in some cases for rather obscure details. I doubt that most people actually care about those features like the various svg-foo features. And the build breaks often enough if I try them out because they are obviously not tested.
That is, I see the benefit in --disable-svg which reduces build time and binary size. But I doubt the sense in all the fine grained options. If somebody needs those, let him request options.
There's also things like dashboard, icon-database, html5-storage. Does it make sense to enable or disable these?

The options are there so build-webkit can use them. We can probably hide some of them and just make the ones we need visible.

A lot of the SVG options are gone now. I think we can close this bug.
