I'd recommend that you either open a bug for that (feature request) or
otherwise ask on the gentoo-developer mailing list. Since this is the user
mailing list you have no guarantee that the right people read it here.

autounmask should disappear. It's a bad idea, because it *creates* single
version (=) unmasked packages that later *require* intervention. Every day in
#gentoo we see people who can't resolve dep issues because of autounmask.

So should it be patched or removed?

That's your choice...removal is my opinion. I used it only once a couple years
ago and lived to regret the mess it made...ymmv. If there was a reminder to
use dispatch-conf and it's been removed, then file a bug report against that
software if you want it back.
