  a quick grep in openembedded-core/meta shows:

$ grep -r "IMAGE_INSTALL +=" *
recipes-core/images/core-image-minimal-mtdutils.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "mtd-utils"
recipes-extended/images/core-image-testmaster.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "\
recipes-extended/images/core-image-lsb-sdk.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "kernel-dev"
recipes-graphics/images/core-image-directfb.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "\
recipes-qt/images/qt4e-demo-image.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "\
recipes-rt/images/core-image-rt-sdk.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "rt-tests hwlatdetect kernel-dev"
recipes-rt/images/core-image-rt.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "rt-tests hwlatdetect"
recipes-sato/images/core-image-sato-sdk.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "kernel-dev"
recipes-sato/images/core-image-sato.bb:IMAGE_INSTALL += "packagegroup-core-x11-sato-games"
$

  now i'm scared to look. :-)
