Would this not be better in a distro config file? conf/distro/poky.conf
comes to mind.

Josh pointed out that the lsb variant would then miss out - so perhaps a
network-sanity.inc file could be included by each distro defined in a
layer. It doesn't make sense in layer.conf as multiple layers can be
used - but as I understand it, only a single distro is built at a time?

I like the idea of it working by default without any requirements on
local.conf. The user could override this variable in local.conf if they
want, but I don't think it should be required to be there for the checks
to work.
