+1

This works really well for the Gentoo Chromium team, where we have just
hard masked packages and ~arch packages right in the tree.

It helps with earlier detection of problems, especially with ~arch
packages. I also know there are developers who are using the hard masked
packages (thanks!) and I'd like to make that as easy as possible. Also,
because no overlays are needed, we are all on the same page about other
packages installed on the system.
