I disagree. It would have been straightforward to create a transitional
package sys-power/upower-10000 which makes openrc users transition to
sys-power/upower-pm-utils and systemd users to sys-power/upower-systemd
or something similar.

And please keep such changes out of stable until proper documentation is
in place (and the 30 day period has elapsed, etc.)
