OK, well, as Ben said it's not feasible to make -C act like -c due to |

the performance hit involved and due to the purpose of the command itself. |

It likely is feasible and may well make sense to add a message to the |

-c output that states that packages in the provided list aren't |

removed because they are dependencies. You should open up a bug for |

that against portage and let the portage dev's sort it out. |
