to find out more information about it but I can't find either in the ebuild 5 
man or
the online documentation about this feature.  I'm curious if I'm just really 
behind
in this or if it's an undocumented feature (or it's documented somewhere I 
haven't
seen).  And as such, it makes me wonder how many more of these *features* there 
are
that aren't disclosed anywhere.

Do we need to have someone update the docs to reflect all of the new (new being 
a
quite relative word here) features of portage?

This feature is not available in stable portage, which is why its not documented. And yes there are many other features that lack documentation.
