Maybe it could say in parenthesis what kind of processors have it (foo
and later vendor bar CPUs) or something if it can be classified like
that. I think it's still pretty AMD specific and introduced with a
certain family.

 
  USE static-libs to enable or disable static libs (archives), used by 6

 USE static-libs Build static libraries

I think this should be clear on that dynamic libraries are still built
and installed

Build static libraries in addition to shared libraries

 
  USE mtp is used by 6 ebuilds, enables Media Transfer Protocol support.
 
 USE mtp Enable support for Media Transfer Protocol
 
 
  Any objections?
  
  Could you share it with everyone what the proposed global descriptions
  of these USE flags would be,

 and what the individual local USE flag
  descriptions currently are?

You seem to have ignored this part. I guess I'm just lazy to go look up
what packages actually have those as a local USE flags and go viewing
metadata.xml of each of those.

 So that everyone won't need to look up by
  themselves or guess the global description.
  
 
 
 Thanks Samuli

Maybe network and net could be merged ?

Yes. USE=networking and USE=net to global USE flag network. They
all seem to do the same thing.
