Always when this comes back up I wish portage didn't categorize
in terms of an arbitrary fixed tree, but in terms of a flat list
(or alphabetical tree) of packages, where each package has one
or more keywords. In this case, scheme would have keywords like:
"dev lang lisp scheme" to show that it's a development package,
a computer language, a lisp (variant) and scheme. The user would
say e.g. 'emerge search lisp' to find it. Similarly
'emerge search editor' would find both emacs and vim.
