A random alternative idea:

1. don't touch sys-apps/coreutils at all (for now)

2. make sys-apps/uutils-coreutils install the files to e.g. /usr/libexec/uutils

3. make sys-apps/uutils-coreutils[a use flag] or maybe a separate package(?) install a file like /etc/env.d/uutils which would add /usr/libexec/uutils to PATH before /usr/bin

This makes them coinstallable, and using the changed environment you can call the utils by their usual name
