I couldn't agree more, but I was forced to add this rather than allow
unported ebuilds to break.
Thanks,

Hmmm...Looks to me like it would be a great idea to fix the unported
ebuilds. Would it be possible to mark virtual/x11-7 as deprecated
(using enotice/ewarn or similar), in order to get people to port any
build relying on it to modular X?
The way I see it, once virtual/x11-7 has been deprecated for a while (6
months to a year) and most popular packages have been ported to modular
X, virtual/x11-7 and any packages still relying on it could be given
Last Rites.
