I would propose to use it for the 100+ app-xemacs packages, all of which
run within the virtual machine that is xemacs. Obviously
app-editors/xemacs, the editor itself, will still be keyworded for each
arch, but the chance of running into arch-specific issues with the
packages is very small, and they are released independently from the
editor.

The same thing may apply to a number of dev-ruby/* packages (those
installing only ruby code), but that would need per-package
investigation.
