There are use flag editors which will display entire list of flags
(along with their descriptions) and let you select or deselect the ones
you want. I use ufed, but there are some others in portage. One
approach is to go through the list once (there are a lot of them) and at
least select the ones you're sure you want. Then if ever some feature
you wanted doesn't seem to be in place for a package, check its use
flags.
