You could do that, or you could learn about sed's -i option, or better
yet, you could just use

NOCOLOR="true" emerge foo

until this you can do:
insert '#NOCOLOR="true"' into make.conf then call this from cron:

#!/bin/bash
sed 's/^#NOCOLOR="true"$/NOCOLOR="true"/g' /etc/make.conf > /tmp/make.conf \ 
&& cp /tmp/make.conf /etc/make.conf \
&&  \
&& sed 's/^NOCOLOR="true"$/#NOCOLOR="true"/g' /tmp/make.conf > /etc/make.conf

But you're right, IMHO it should be implemented ...
