I knew from reading portage-dev ml Actually, I am hoping that the introduction of the feature be taken as an opportunity to document USE_EXPAND better as a whole on some prominent places where USE-flags are introduced, explaining that these are internally really just USE-flags with special names (example) and that the whole syntax with variables (and the new one in package.use) are just convenience shortcuts for global/local settings. It would also not hurt to refer to desc/ Probably some native speaker can formulate this much better.
