I'm with Wyatt on this one. Can we appreciate there may be a difference between convenience and hand holding? If we consider the case where the user is not interested in moving binary packages between machines, there is nothing to be gained from customsing these CPU feature flags as you always want all of them. Personally I wouldn't bother putting a feature request in for this, as I know which flags to use and as I only build about one gentoo box a year so the overhead is low.
