Please correct me if I am wrong.
That is a valid use for it. Bitbake itself is just an interpreter and task executor and needs some definitions (metadata) to work from. The data in openembedded is the best example there is and you'll probably find a lot of code from it useful. I would strongly suggest considering using openembedded before doing your own thing since a lot of the problems you will encounter are already solved there though.
