Good point. How does SPDX tooling handle embedded SW components in recipe 
sources?

I presume it does not because recipe and license don't handle it either. Should
there be a more generic PN_subpn, PV_subpn, LICENSE_subpn and matching 
CVE_PRODUCT
and CVE_VERSION? I don't have use cases for these currently. I would like to fix
the CVE reporting issues with embedded SW components though. mbedtls being one 
good
example.

Or would it be better to convert mbedtls users to use the meta-oe side recipe 
for it?

Additionally I don't currently read the SDPX output. I don't have use cases for 
it.
I do check recipes and their metadata like LICENSE though. Feels like the SDPX 
data
is used as reporting/export data format which is fed to some other tools which 
are
not open source.

Can of worms...

Cheers,
