Why, could the dev add an option that parses out all of those

Do you mean like the elog system that can write this information to a
separate log file, email it to you, pass it to a command or any
combination of these? There are also elog viewers in portage, although I
have no experience of these, I use my mailer to read these messages.
I concur elog is great. I have it e-mail me a single file after I've
run updates or installed anything. It's stupid simple to setup too.

I use elogviewer myself. Works pretty good. I can also clear out the
old logs when I have everything updated and stable as well. Gives me a
fresh start for next time.
