I have an idea for the user-defined-class.   Portage could be given 2
new option's:

--nonworld, to exclude a package from being included in the world file
when specifically emerged.  Instead of manually editing the world file
afterwards.

--include {world,system,myclass1,myclass2,etc.} for portage to add the
package to whichever list(s) are specified.  If myclass is not found,
then create it and add the pkg.  The devs may of course want to exclude
world(duplication) and system from the acceptable list(used as known
values for example).
