I agree, however more below...

I don't think we want this to be image-specific. FWIW, we do already have a
mechanism to handle this for the dropbear recipe - debug-tweaks in
IMAGE_FEATURES. I don't particularly like it however since IMAGE_FEATURES
should not be influencing non-image recipes. This has bothered me for a while
and I think we ought to change to some other mechanism (perhaps make it a
separate variable) and then make the OpenSSH recipe use that.
Cheers,
Paul
