I agree that the semantics is skewed. Particularly since there is now a difference between mozilla and mozilla-firefox.


Simple solution is to add a local useflag in /etc/portage/package.use for your favourite JVM.


       Useflag           Description / Use
============================================================================
   o.  gecko             Specifies if an ebuild comes with mozilla-support.=
                         E.g. net-www/liferea

Unfortunately, afaik, the only package that supplies gecko is net-www/mozilla. When net-www/mozilla-firefox starts installing headers (1.0 does not), it makes sense to have a 'gecko' USE flag.
