Will update this.

Note: The line above depends on the line below. :)

However, even so, I will try to make a change to keep "xmas tree order".

As discussed in the previous replies, IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DIMLIB) will be removed
in the next version, so we'll do not have this problem, but your suggestion is
good.

Thanks.
