I don't think that if you navigate upwards after following a bind
mount that you end up in the tree that was mounted. Ie,
/var/tmp/portage/.. = /var/tmp, not /usr/portage. With a symbolic
link it would resolve to /usr/portage unless the shell does something
clever.
You can mount bind mounts into containers, and I'm pretty confident
the container can't navigate out into the rest of the filesystem that
way.

Well, for anything on the wiki I'd suggest just adding it. For the
manpages I'd submit a bug on bugs.gentoo.org against portage (the
software).
