Sounds like a good idea, tho i don't know if this is actually feasible.
I use "mgrep" when i'm digging into mk/bp.
I have to say that there are a lot of global variables, and most of
them are undocumented. This is very frustrating.
The build system of AOSP is very obscure, that was a big
disappointment for me when I started.
Magic stuff everywhere!
"make product-graph" is a very useful tool, I think soong/bp is fairly
documented. The Makefiles are the pain point IMO.
