Hi Alex：
Yes, modifying the image recipe can actually customize your root file system,
as linux vendors, they are familiar with bitbake and it's very easy to them.
But, as I know, there are many users who are not very familiar with bitbake but
also want to customize their root file system. And it's hard to make them learn
how to use bitbake.
So if dnf-nativesdk can be used in sdk, as linux vendors, they only need to
provide rpm packages and sdk to users instead of teaching them how to use
bitbake. At last, users can use dnf-nativesdk to manage their packages as what
they do in their host.
So I hope to add dnf-nativesdk in toolchain.

What you describe is exactly what image creation does (either directly through
bitbake, or via 'devtool build-image'). What benefits are in running dnf by
hand from command line? If the idea is to hand pick packages to add to an
image, then it's better to just modify the image recipe or use 'devtool
build-image' if you are developing apps in a workspace.
