This is what the LAYERDIR variable gives us. 

Having relative paths would lose all context outside the layer.conf
file. We could hardcode a list of variables that needed to be processed
and so on but LAYERDIR removes all that complexity whilst still letting
you move things around.

You should be able to do that with my proposal, the only file that would
need changing is bblayers.conf, not the layers themselves.
