Its possible, feasible and highly desired! Has been on my TODO list  
for over a year now.....

Probably just be done as an eclass with the appropriate function  
being called with a USE flag conditional in pkg_postinst(). Aside  
from shuffling the files in ${D} around to match the framework  
directory structure, you would also scan all shared libs with otool 
(1) to check that install_names are set correctly, and set them with  
install_name_tool(1) if they are not.

Of course this would only be needed for packages that don't support  
frameworks natively... for instance Python and SDL both have upstream  
framework build targets already.

I dunno, lets see your patches for this feature and we'll go from  
there ;)
