Is there a way to add custom notes reminders during emerge or after?

I've upgraded the bin scanner package (from overlay):
brother-scan4-bin-0.4.4-r4
and I receive an email note from emerge:
----
LOG: postinst
You may need to be in the scanner or plugdev group in order to use the
scanner
To add a network scanner to sane, run:
brsaneconfig4 -a name=(name your device) model=(model name) ip=xx.xx.xx.xx
or simply run brsaneconfig4 for more options
----

I didn't pay attention to it as my scanner was already configured.
What it didn't tell me that the upgrade emptied my configuration file:
/opt/brother/scanner/brscan4/brsanenetdevice4.cfg

It is not a Gentoo like behaviour.  If there are any changes need to be
made it should be done via: cfgupdate etc. style;  not just wipe the
configuration file.
