as one of the new sane features of the next portage-2.1_pre release, we're looking to cut out use.defaults support existing stable users wont be affected as the 2.0.x versions will continue to carry support for this, but some of you stable users may notice some USE flags suddenly "disappearing"

Can we get this on the website/announce? I agree that auto-use is the suck and that it needs to die a long excrutiating death, but I think a lot of users will be like wtf when 2.1 hits stable and --newuse turns up a massive crapload of packages. Whether this announced now, or when portage-2.1

IMHO a lot of the auto-use stuff that is "mis-used" is moreso what IUSE defaults is for. I have a crappy patch for IUSE defaults that I may try to work on so that it can be merged in the 2.1/2.2 branch. I realize that this is probably a bit far off, but will hopefully improve the situation.
