I already had the idea of using use. and merge it with use.mask so that we have one file to force flags on or off for a profile. That means three operators, "force enable", "force disable" and "clear settings from parent profiles" but currently the parser works with just two operator, flag and -flag. So portage would need more changes here. But after reading the file portage would (assuming the current code base) split them in two categories, masked flags and forced flags, so it's easier IMHO to just keep them in two different files.
