I would second USE=info. I use info pages not infrequently, and it's
irritating when I'm on an unfamiliar system or distro, discover manpages
are present (but info pages aren't), and can't find the easy path
forward to get them installed.
USE=info would be superb, in that sense. USE=doc would be fine, too, IMHO.
