getting rid of consolekit and policykit
systemd makes them redundant, getting rid of them is pretty easy:
edit /etc/pam.d/system-auth and enable pam_systemd.so:
session optional pam_systemd.so
and re-emerge pambase
USE=-consolekit emerge pambase
and sincle polkit is used by upower and udisks (automount) and these 2 is used by kdelibs, you may want ot rebuild kdelibs too:
USE="-upower -udisks" emerge kdelibs

start DHCP at boot with systemd
migrating from openRC was smooth and automatic, except starting the DHCP.
To play with runlevels, issue this commands:
systemctl enable dhcpcd systemctl disable dhcpcd
They seem to translate to creating/deleting symlinks:
ln -s '/usr/lib64/systemd/system/dhcpcd.service' '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/dhcpcd.service' rm '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/dhcpcd.service'

update all packages under same category (for example KDE) with emerge
from eix --help:
-#, --only-names --pure-packages with format/ -I, --installed Next expression only matches installed packages. -C, --category category
The emerge command:
emerge -av $(eix -I#C kde-base)
