You may want to have a look on bug #23826, which is a very close proposal.
Comment 2 Jason Stubbs (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-28 07:24:45 UTC 
Putting a hold on feature requests for portage as they are drowning out the 
bugs. Most of these features should be available in the next major version of 
portage. But for the time being, they are just drowning out the major bugs and 
delaying the next version's progress. 
 
Any bugs that contain patches and any bugs for etc-update or dispatch-conf can 
be reopened. Sorry, I'm just not good enough with bugzilla. ;)

Released in 2.1_pre1 or 2, I can't recall which.
