Shouldn't that just be scripted via pybugz? A GUI for that would be nice;
perhaps as a pida[1] module. Frankly it appals me that y'all have so much
time to write bash scriptlets and none to develop tools for your own use.

Who cares? It's more organisation than you have now, and as I understand
Duncan's suggestion it's first about adding a category above pkgs within
Ebuilds <foo> (though I think he mixed up interface and tables a bit, sorry
Duncan ;) Tree is the most fundamental work, besides portage. I guess a tag
cloud would be nice tho. No reason you can't build associated metadata
webapps on another host (cf beandog's portage postgres db[2].)
