I was wrong about this - the collection name is collected and used in the 
dependency resolution. New layers / branches should have this information 
populated, however we haven't collected collection names for all of the 
existing layers. I have just gone in and checked meta-oe and oe-core are set 
up for master, morty, krogoth & jethro.

Cheers,
