mplayerplug-in can run in X mode without gtk.  
 
Please add gtk use flag and do something like: 
 
gtk? ( >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.2.0 ) 
 
to avoid pulling in gtk when unnecessary

I don't see how it's useful.  In order to use the plugin, you need a mozilla
browser.  All of the browsers require gtk-2.  Do you have a reason why using the
X toolkit is needed?

hmmm, I was under the impression that firefox could be built without gtk (maybe
just gdk, and there was a qt port once). But since the ebuild doesn't support
that, I agree, there's no point in supporting it elsewhere at the moment.
