12 Firstly, sorry for the delayed response. As for a bash-completion-extras
13 package, that sounds better than introducing more USE flag/eclass bloat. esp.
14 for something so trivial.

16 | Yup. Each bash-completion file in use makes bash a bit slower to start

21 Installing bash-completion-extras would just install the files into
22 /usr/share/bash-completion, not enable them in the env ; that will be
23 bash-completion-config's job once I get done with it.
