Some (many?) libraries rarely change API/ABI so it wouldn't make sense
to include those in a first run.

Better yet, focus on those (few?) libraries that regularly change
APIs/ABIs and for which adding sub-SLOT deps to dependent ebuilds makes
sense *now*.
That's just the one tracker bug per library and blocking bugs for its
revdeps, and I'd gladly help out focusing the effort.
