All,
Here's a GLEP for the addition of USE flag descriptions to package
metadata. It does not address any future ideas that others may have had
or suggested. It merely gives developers the necessary "tools" to
document their USE flag usage it better detail on a per package basis.
An clearly motivation explanation that I didn't add, which I'm going to
add once I send this is the fact that as per the QA Project,
use.local.desc can not contain a USE flag that already appears globally
in use.desc. This would allow a description for that USE flag to be
contained in the metadata.

I encourage any and all _technical_ feedback.
Thanks.
