I appreciate the idea, but security-wise it's pretty dangerous - given that you as a Gentoo dev are doing sensitive work that may affect many people on a machine not controlled by you yourself nor Gentoo Infra. Call me paranoid, but please no. And in absolutely no case one should commit to the tree from such a machine, even with stuff like agent forwarding. -- Andreas K.
