Like get_masters and > get_repo_dir functions. I'd really prefer if we implemented stuff that people need rather than random ideas that people may one day find some abusive use for. Plus, we don't want to bind EAPI into specific repository structure. Plus, as axs pointed out, that doesn't help anyone unless they want to reimplement whole masters logic in every ebuild needing that. -- Best regards, Michał Górny <http://dev.gentoo.org/~mgorny/>
