You are somewhat missing the point. My point is that most developers
probably don't want to care about what happens PackageMap upstream at
all so unless you mandate something to metadata.xml you will be relying
on others to keep the information between Portage and your service in
sync. But if it's in metadata.xml as a mandatory attribute then
developers will be automatically adding the value when they create a new
pkg.

Petteri
