That seems like a reasonable solution. So, an ebuild can do
something like LICENSE="@GPL-2+" and that will expand to whatever
the definition of the GPL-2+ license group happens to be. When a new
version of GPL license comes out, we simple add it to that group,
and none of the corresponding ebuilds have to be updated.
