The "CBE" is really the Desktop CBE. We use a CBE for the Desktop Consolidation for several reasons: - in the past, none of the tools in the Desktop CBE were in Solaris - sometimes a too new or a too old version of a tool can break our build and we can't wait for the package to be updated in SFW. - Desktop developers can use the same set of tools regardless of the build of OpenSolaris/Nevada they are running pkgbuild itself doesn't depend on any of the tools in the Desktop CBE, specific Desktop spec files do. All that said, ideally we shouldn't need a separate Desktop CBE and pkgbuild is already on the project list of integration into OpenSolaris.
