Thanks for the patch.

We were thinking on similar lines for SOC variants and MACHINE variants (basically boards supporting different features like GPU, VCU etc).  These configuration mechanism will help resolve these cases. 
SOARCH can also help in package-feed mechanism for boards

You should definitely considering up streaming these to OE-core

Thanks,
