Isn't this covered by /etc/portage/repos.conf/*

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.
