I do still use this on rare occasions. It's not my favourite program but there
are no good alternatives, short of using Rhythmbox, which does more than I want. I'm not aware that it's actually broken, aside from a couple of minor warts in the package. Does it have to go?

No, if you want to keep it -- feel free. I just saw it because it's
the only reverse dependency of dev-util/anjuta which looks pretty dead itself, and then I saw how much more dead gtkpod looks.
If you can break the dependence on anjuta (which I didn't
investigate), I'd have no problem keeping it. Would be nice to have an
actual maintainer as well.

Last rites has been cancelled. I'm taking over as maintainer.

Removal date is approaching. Are you planning to take this?

Okay, but are you doing the thing I asked?

Sorry, it was last thing at night and I hadn't noticed the keyword situation. I think Anjuta is a key dependency and can't be dropped. I'll take it if necessary. Maybe I'll strip it down.
