I think he ment something that didn't limit his/users use of gtk or gtk2, but
would be a little more 'user friendly' then:

USE="<whatever you need here>" emerge gvim

I don't see the need for a change but would point out that the commonly
used USE then emerege syntax should be made _very_ clear in the docs.
(probably noted somplace in the install doc since that's the only one
most people seem to read)
