Would it then make sense to note the reasons why we support one or
another non-free software in a separate file like etc/NON-FREE-SUPPORT?
Non-free software popular now may not be popular in future, and thus it
will become not ethical to support it then.
Also, what about Emacs supporting MS DOS and old versions of Windows? Do
they still qualify as popular software?
