a way to pre-emptively tell etc-update not to bother me about certain

Then just add whatever files are bothing you to EXCLUDE_FILES, and run
my_etcupdate.sh instead of etc-update.
Or as Bo suggested, create scripts on a per-package basis in
/etc/portage/env/cat-egory/package to remove the new configs after the
packages are merged.
