Look at classes/sanity.bbclass

I would drop both rather as not describing anything.

bootloaders (as 'utils', 'editors', 'applications')

base/shell and console/shells? I would choose one.

devel/perl

devel/scheme - we already has it (guile)

fonts - TrueType fonts are currently in x11/fonts but can be used also by

kde/devel rather

virtual/kernel modules -> kernel, out-of-tree modules -> kernel/modules
