I'm totaly OK with this, as long as its accepted somewhere.
As Lei states though, we need to document the layer setup in README.

However, for future reference, I see no reason why new recipes can't end 
up in meta-virtualization first for a usable working setup, and when 
accepted upstream, they will be removed.
I suggest we use 
recipes-external/meta-<potential-upstream-here>/new-recipe-name/ until 
accepted elsewhere.
