It's still being edited, so I have no idea whether I'm commenting on the 
same version as was originally posted. Regardless, here's a few points 
on the version I'm reading:

- pkg_pretend() and a default src_install() would be excellent to have.

- docompress is good

- doheader/doinclude would be nice, same for dodoc -r, doins symlinks

- fixing problems in some existing features would be useful

- I understand the reasoning for the SRC_CONFIGURE_WITH blah stuff. I 
strongly oppose this implementation because it makes ebuilds less like 
bash scripts that are easy to understand. Instead I suggest extending 
use_with() and use_enable() to accept multiple sets of arguments 
(alternately, making custom, similar functions that will take multiple 
args). Combined with the addition of src_configure() in EAPI=2, the 
amount of code could be a large reduction from existing versions without 
raising the barrier to entry.
