As a user, I wouldn't normally write to this list, but you asked for our
opinions.
Apart from the fact that I upgrade the kernel more often than I upgrade
nvidia-kernel, and as many have pointed out this means reistallyng glx,
nvidia-settings and nvidia-xconfig even if not needed, there's also another
important point:
This unified ebuild will lead me to upgrade the package even if it is just a
rev-bump for issues related to (e.g.) nvidia-settings, which I don't even
use!! Or do you expect that users always look at the Changelog to see if the
upgrade really applies to them. How could this "improve the user's
experience"?
Some may not agree with the idea of turning it in a meta-ebuild, but if this
must really be done, I think that would be the only way to keep everyone
satisfied.
