I don't know about the feature to do the reboot, but we were using extra
metadata flags for .ipk to mark packages which need the reboot (so that
package manager can query updated packages and decide if it's needed).

See
http://patches.openembedded.org/patch/39181/
http://patches.openembedded.org/patch/39183/

I don't know why this wasn't ever merged in oe-core
http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2012-November/031856.html
doesn't have any negative review AFAIK.
