Something nice would be to reimplement revdep-rebuild as a package set
for portage-2.2 (the ground work for that is already done, but most of
the processing logic from revdep-rebuild is still missing).
Unlike most other portage-related ideas this one doesn't require a huge
understanding of portage internals, and I'd be willing to mentor
applicants for this.

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better.
