Absolutely, but this requires a manual intervention from the user. And,
of course, you can totally opt-out from portage managing (syncing) the
repository, but then you have to take care of syncing yourself.
The point is that with the new portage release, portage's behavior
changes. And I would argue that portage should not, in its effort to
become more user friendly, disregard ebuild-developer friendliness.
Assuming it is achievable with a reasonable amount of additional code
complexity.
