I'd like to add a warning like the existing one for java.eclassesnotused.  Ebuilds that have x11-libs/wxGTK in DEPEND must inherit wxwidgets.eclass, otherwise wx-config defaults to the profile that the user set up with eselect.  This leads to random bugs and build errors, and every time I bump the version it breaks any ebuilds not using the eclass.  Every year or so i have to go through the tree fixing ebuilds and every year there's more and more to fix.  Hopefully this will help keep the number down.
