This seems like fairly significant new functionality to go in completely
undocumented.  I'd expect to see at least something that explains the
basics of what it is, how it works, why it's needed, what functionality
it's meant to replace, and especially how users are supposed to use it
and what the interface is.

Also, if we pull this in, and then as implied by your last sentence,
it's migrated to oe-core and runs into resistance or needs to be changed
significantly, are we stuck supporting a conflicting interface in
meta-intel forever?  If so, and it's ultimately intended to live in
oe-core, I'd suggest it just wait to undergo a proper review in that
context in the 1.8 timeframe.
