12 Looking into this a little further, it seems that Display-If-Installed can be implemented with `portageq match / <atom>` and Display-If-Keyword can be implemented with `portageq envvar ARCH`. That leaves Display-If-Profile which may require a new portageq query in order to cleanly retrieve the profile. Perhaps something like profile=$(portageq profile) would be sufficient?
