New category - ports/packages specific tools?

I like the idea as well. While the current categories assigned the the
ports-related ports makes sense (doesn't sysutils, which is used for most,
make perfect sense?), better discoverability for these programs is a good
thing.
I like portutils as a new name, because it's easier to read and write than
ports-mgmt.
I'd also like the new category to be virtual only. If you look, at for
example, security/portaudit, it makes more sense to me to find that in the
security than a portutils dir. And as I said, I find the sysutils dir
appropriate for ports things (although, looking at it, it could probably be
cleaned up a bit - is eg. k3b really a sysutil? The tools it uses for the
actual burning, maybe, but k3b itself?)
Cheers
