I guess it depends on what you mean by "personal content". Certain settings are really part of distro policy and if you're finding that you're setting them all the time for all of the builds that you're doing, it would make more sense to create a distro layer that sets them - then it's simply a matter of ensuring that layer is added to your bblayers.conf and you set DISTRO as appropriate. AFAIK the command line options in question were added to allow frontends to inject configuration into bitbake rather than something the user would normally use directly.
