I agree, however more below... > What's your use-case? Is it for automatic testing/development?

FWIW, we do already have a mechanism to handle this for the dropbear recipe - debug-tweaks in IMAGE_FEATURES. I don't particularly like it however since IMAGE_FEATURES should not be influencing non-image recipes. This has bothered me for a while and I think we ought to change to some other mechanism (perhaps make it a separate variable) and then make the OpenSSH recipe use that.
