I want to give Gentoo another go. I do wish there was an installer though - I don't want to config everything out the gate. Ideally, I'd get my software on with default USE flags, then try recompile with small changes here and there.

Most packages do have default USE flags set. You can see all the options when doing

  emerge --update world -avt 

that will show you all the default options set before installing, at which point you can just modify the USE for anything you want to add/remove.
