We can have a different default in the developer profile.

Why don't people who want it more noisy use EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS in a
similar way? I generally agree with the comment that in most cases it's

retrieved later if needed.

One note though: sometimes build or test hangs at some point. There are
situations where it's useful to see the current build output.
