Let me get things straight. We would want this because it's the least of 
two evils?

On one hand ?arch isn't nice because it's package-level instead of 
arch-specific, so it doesn't belong among keywords. 
On the other hand testing.mask (if it's like package.mask) takes this 
(package-level) stuff and moves it out of the ebuilds it belongs to and 
dumps it all in one file.

So we'd want this because we don't want to introduce something new in
the ebuilds?

Just getting things straight before expressing my opinion explicitly =]
