This idea of putting almost everything into its own repo/overlay will IMO end 
up in the same mess that several other distros have with tons of 3rd party 
repos that don't play nice with each other. In case you don't know, the "one 
stop" philosophy with one central repo is what attracts a lot of people to 
Gentoo.
And no, inter-repo deps won't solve that problem.

Also you said you're trying to solve the "lack of goals" problem (which I don't 
think is a real problem in the first place) which wouldn't really solved by 
this proposal either, not without duplicating a lot of work at least.

I like the part about projects being self-organizing, but splitting up the tree 
is a no go from my POV.
