Hullo,
I was wondering recently about the way the dependencies of kde
packages are made. For example I want to emerge kdeaddons, as the 
dependencies it requires me to install kdemultimedia and kdegames.
However, strictly speaking kdeaddons does not require aby of these
packages and I don't see the point why I should actually need them?
IMHO (kdegames - well they are not that good ;) kdemultimedia - xmms+xine - 
rules!)

So, what I am suggesting is why not add a local USE flag, something like
no_kde_mult ans no_kde_games, so that users could emerge addons without
having to compile the above named packages?
