You probably want to make two packages, Foo-console and Foo-gui.  Foo-gui
should depend on Foo-console, therefor if you choose to install Foo-gui
it will install Foo-console automatically.  This is the way the xine
packages work (which you should probably take a look at).  Xine-ui depends
on xine-lib, so when you emerge xine-ui, you get a fully functional gui
xine, but if you emerge xine-lib, you end up with just the libraries
needed for another xine frontend.
