Adding S for Security-Update to Portage?

[Klavs]

Hi guys,

I'm sure this idea has been kicked around before, but I was wondering how it got received and if it is in progress, when it will emerge in portage

Here goes.

I was hoping we could f.ex. get an S in Portage (and be able to select f.ex. -u --security-only). The S would signify that this package is a Security Upgrade - and thus would need to be applied - whereas anything else is just a feature/bug fix - and on a production box doesn't need to be applied ASAP.

What do you think?
