There are several new command-line options and modes available that have not been documented in the README or in the man page:
--mode=reinstall-atoms, a.k.a. --reinstall-atoms or -R
Uses the relatively unknown --resintall-atomsoption for emerge to mark broken packages as "not installed". This helps portage more intelligently handle the depgraph, and allows for adding things like --update to skip masked packages and @world to pull in the larger context.
(I would say this is no longer experimental [as I have tested it extensively on my systems], so that language should be removed from the help text)
