There's a lot more you can do inside a snapcraft.yaml (bundle external files, override .config options, run pre or post scripts, etc) but by embedding everything inside the kernel/kbuild plugins you would loose all these options, and people would loose visibility of these opportunities. Besides, snapcraft requires a snapcraft.yaml by design, and i can't remove that (such a change would never be accepted). -- bye, p.
