I already use euse.  It is really helpful.   The short descriptions of the USE flags are often helpful.  Just as often, they are not informative enough to enable me, at least, to make an informed decision.  A little more information would often have helped. 

Do you have any ideas about a next step?

I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a program I must share it with other people who like it.              --------Richard Stallman

Every great advance in natural knowledge has involved the absolute rejection of authority.  ----- Thomas H. Huxley
