See https://bugs.gentoo.org/586420#c20 (and especially the IRC log |

The pre-GLEP on per-package eclasses stalled in 2010, before it even |

reached the draft stage. From this I conclude that the demand cannot |
| 15 |
be so pressing, otherwise someone would have picked it up in the |
| 16 |
meantime. |
