scratch/$DISTRO? I'd like to keep the 'top' directory the same, it has proven 
to be confusing to new users when it changes name.

I like 'build-results' :)

Exactly, I don't know how it's going to be implemented, but turning things 
off/on easily is certainly needed. Ideally oebb would only enable the BSP 
layers it needs for a given machine, but mixed repos (e.g.meta-smartphone) make 
that difficult. That's not a complaint against meta-smartphone, though.

It works great, but I'd like to have everyone use my patches on top of oe-core, 
without needing to fork the oe-core repo.
