How would you regulate the behavior of a software layer that is doing bbappends
or similar to a system provided component.
My understanding is that the inclusion of the software layer SHOULD be able to
modify the existing recipe behavior, as there currently is no other way to
'control' activation.
This is different then BSP and distro layers, which have a specific activation
(and thus override) behavior.
