As it happens, a lot of the features that go into EAPIs are designed to
help with that. They make it easier to write good ebuilds (and harder
to get away with certain QA abuses by accident), possible to write
ebuilds that are less annoying and possible to write ebuilds that cover
things that could not previously be covered. And, looking at it the
other way, Gentoo has lost a lot of good people because they weren't
prepared to put up with EAPI stagnation.
