The "roadmap" was, indeed, created, and discussed in length on the
gentoo-dev mailing list. Take a look at GLEP 11 at glep.gentoo.org,
and search one of the gentoo-dev list archives to see the entire
discusion.
If you have a better idea, please do feel free to write your own GLEP.
Very little in Gentoo is ever set in stone, so if your idea is better
than the current system, and you or somebody else is willing to provide
the code to implement it, then the odds are high that it will be
adopted.
Best,
