That's pretty pointless. Most of those packages use the 'minimal' flag
in a similar fashion, and your solution simply complicates things for
users.

If you wanted to remove 'minimal' from global USE flag list -- ok, I
don't mind that. But don't require ebuild authors to use stupid names
for their local flags just because you assume some users may misuse
them.
