So... thoughts? I'm not much for making portage depend on tarsync just for emerge-webrsync improvements, would rather chunk the bugger out.

How about runtime detection?

runtime detection is questionable from my standpoint, since while coding for it is good, without hard dep pulling it in the only folks who will ever have a faster emerge-webrsync are those who happen to know the hidden trick to merge tarsync.

Well, how do you plan to inform users of the splitted package for webrsync? Could just do the same for tarsync instead, or for example if no tarsync is found print a nice little message about "falling back to slow default, emerge tarsync to avoid".
