This has me wondering if there is a utility to help manage the use

If you are using a recent portage, you can use the --newuse flag, which
will show which USE flags have changed.
I'm guessing you are referring to "emerge --newuse". That just selects
packages
where a use flag for an ebuild is different from the last time the
package was built.
I'm more interested in discovering brand new use flags. Say some
package, foo,
creates a new use flag, bar, then I'd like to see something like:
New Use Flags:
bar (used in: foo)
It also would be nice to see when particular package changes the set of
available
use flags between versions.
Changed USE flag sets in the following packages:
foo-1.0.0 (a b c)
foo-1.0.1 (a c d e)
Thank you,
Roy
