I'm all for it, as said before, in my opinion there are two distributions. The 
Source distribution (emerge) which should build everything possible from 
source and the binary distribution (the installer). Mixing them is just added 
overhead with no real value.

Personally I'm building sourceonly for a very long time now and I am not 
updating the binary packages. 

As we've already made sourceonly default at the last sprint dropping the 
binary packages should not hurt anyone.

Regards,
Andre
