and mixing overlays and repository doesn't look that good even if it
could be a possible temporary solution ^^;

Well I think there is a huge list of advanced features already
implemented and working well in paludis, but, my interest is in getting
a basic wrapper so people writing front-ends could just have some high
level abstraction for now and then cover what's advanced later.

The abstraction MUST be something better than having pcre parsing the
output of the PM default front-ends, but not that much ^^;
