Just for fun I took some of the ideas about alternative management of the issue and specified the features it makes it worth changing
(better management and automated snapshot generation from the live

I'd like to see some comment on it (I put it in glep form just now so
it isn't exactly perfect)

* ordering for _pre is wrong.

hm?

* How are you planning to handle reinstalls? Should installing world
always reinstall live things? Never? Or what?

depends on the other ebuilds

* How are live ebuilds selected by the package manager?

live ebuilds gets considered as preN+1 for any purpose.

* What's the filename for "live ebuild for SVN trunk/"? What about

foo-${version inside trunk}.live?

"live ebuild for SVN branches/0.26/"?

foo-0.26.live?

What is inside the template is just concern of the ebuild writer. I suggest to use the same version as marked in the configure or other version value the release will get once upstream decides to release.
