I don't get your point. Your solution would require patching
hundreds of ebuilds, just to avoid patching portage? Imho, this is
a very wrong approach.

Sure, but this messages are typically the ones from a few
eclasses. That's the ones that should be changed (by using some
variants of e{info,warn,etc.} that don't write to the log files),
it would be much less work. At the contrary, I think almost all
e{info,warn,etc.} from ebuilds are there to be read and should be
in the logs.
