It is somewhat intentional that eix does practically not treat useflags at all:
The useflag handling (USE_EXPAND is one part of it which BTW could again be
overridden/extended by local settings) is such a complex thing and, moreover,
changes so often, that I have decided that I will not spend time to implement
(and maintain!) it.
So except for the (sorted) output of the IUSE variable in the ebuild and of
the files /var/db/pkg/category/package-version/{,I}USE no other treatment is
planned.

Hope I'm using the right way for a bug report and not requesting something that's already there just not default. Basically I would like more compact and structured way of printing USE_EXPANDed useflags.
