I'd appreciate if you could comment on the python-single-r1 migration for X11 overlay packages I did in the 'python-r1' branch [1].

The main advantages of the new eclasses are:

1) proper Python dependencies,

2) USE flag linkage between dependencies -- xpyb & libxcb require xcb-proto Python files to be built for the same Python implementation.

Previously, the change of active Python interpreter required python-updater run. Now, --changed-use is enough.
