How would this work with packages which treat unset LINGUAS as "install all languages", and empty but set LINGUAS as "install no languages" (the way LINGUAS was supposed to work)? When changing between the two, emerge -pv would show no changes, and there is no way for ebuilds to work around that. I'm all for telling users what parts of a package are optional, but incorrect info is worse than no info. (This doesn't apply to the KDE ebuilds, since they treat empty and unset LINGUAS the same, but you said all packages.)
