This could be handled by doing things like setting:

PRSERV_HOST_pn-myprivaterecipe = "somelocalhost"

or

PRSERV_HOST_pn-myprivaterecipe = ""

to disable it.

One thing we lack is a good way to apply changes like this, only if code
is within a given layer. Even in that case, it should be possible with
anonymous python to look at the location of the current .bb file and
then conditionally set these variables as appropriate to the right
server.

Certainly this needs to be thought about and documented but I think
there are ways to do it.

Cheers,

Richard
