There is nowhere else to put it.  It was suggested on bugs to put a new
directory in $PORTDIR/metadata/desc/ and have the $USE_EXPAND.desc files
in there for portage/repoman to read in.  I don't have a problem with
doing that but would like feedback on it before jumping right in.

Obviously the QA team should be aware of the issue with USE_EXPAND and IUSE.

I don't want to rush this, is my point ;)
