I don't think anyone thinks that the current opengl feature is
sufficient but there hasn't been a good enough alternative just yet.
Are you proposing that the "opengl" distro feature is re-purposed as
"OpenGL", and we add "opengles" for "OpenGLES".  Does this need to be
GLES-version-specific, what about EGL, and what about machines which
can support multiple drivers/GPU hardware?
