There are tests for ide-sdk in meta/lib/oeqa/selftest/cases/devtool.py, should they be adjusted to use the fragment? > This also includes the EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES from > root-login-with-exmpty-password.conf.

Having the settings bundled into the fragment this way quietly opens a big security hole in users' configuration, something they did not necessarily consent to. The original fragment at least warns the users of the dangers involved, this one doesn't. I would much rather take an opportunity to set up proper key-based authentication or something else better than simply not having a password. There was already reluctance to having the original empty-password fragment (because it's the easy way out that only delays solving the problem properly), and spreading these settings to other fragments makes the situation worse.
