It's not. Not if you want to be able to do background fetches, not if
you want to be able to show the user at --pretend time what's going to
happen, and not if you want to give the user proper control of what
will happen.

Nor is this something that can be done as a hack without package manager
help -- you can't 'skip' a package from within a package, and even if
you could you can't know whether that's what the user wants (they might
be doing an emerge -e, for example).
