Page https://devmanual.gentoo.org/general-concepts/features/ missed a lot of flags described in the man make.conf(5) like: - cgroups - network-sandbox - ipc-sandbox and many of them Should we add the info or make a link to actual make.conf(5) manual FEATURES section?
I think we should just remove the page, and tell people to read make.conf(5) instead. The FEATURES variable is for local, portage-specific configuration only.
Maybe include make.conf(5) in eclass-reference/ instead? We already have ebuild(5) there.

We don't write FEATURES specific ebuild code AFAIK. If anything, this information should go to the Gentoo Handbook.
