I think this would be a fine idea.  As you observe, the recipes in
oe-core today are old, slightly hokey, and not a whole lot of use for
much.  We are currently maintaining our own clutter recipes in a local
layer but it would be nice to have something else upstream to lean on.

One particular issue for us is that the clutter recipes as they stand in
oe-core are very X11-centric.  We don't have X and, instead, use the
eglnative backend.  It'd be handy for us if some putative refactoring of
the recipes made them more friendly to non-X11 deployments.
