I think, it'll be nice to have a way to suggest some packages to user,
when (s)he installs something. For now it is only way to do that by
something like:

pkg_postinst() {
        if ! has_version dev-lua/iluajit; then
                einfo "You'd probably want to install dev-lua/iluajit to";
                ewarn "get fully functional interactive shell for LuaJIT";
        fi
        if has_version app-editors/emacs || has_version
app-editors/xemacs; then
                einfo "You'd probably want to install app-emacs/lua-mode
to";
                ewarn "get Lua completion in emacs.";
        fi
}

but some people find that way annoying and some devs also thinks it is
bad way.
Another way (use USEflags-related PDEPs — is a bad way too).

Any thoughts? :)
