I do not think it is possible because, whereas this 'modify-inputs' is
better for readibility, it implies a rebuild of the package, IMHO; the
very thing we would like to avoid since touching to python-numpy is a
core-update modification.

However, maybe python-numpy-next could inherit from python-numpy
instead of the contrary.  Well, I do not know if it is better...
