I think this messages shouldn't be shown when user has already installed the suggested packages:
Starting with version 4.0.0, virtualbox has USB-1 support.
For USB-2 support, PXE-boot ability and VRDP support please emerge
  app-emulation/virtualbox-extpack-oracle
package.
Starting with version 5.0.0, virtualbox no longer has the "additions" and
the "extension" USE flag. For installation of the guest additions ISO
image, please emerge
  app-emulation/virtualbox-additions
and for the USB2, USB3, VRDP and PXE boot ROM modules, please emerge
  app-emulation/virtualbox-extpack-oracle


Thanks
