Thanks for your advice! Actually, I wasn't sure how to make the change.

If I understand correctly, even after I define a new 
'poky-binary-distro' distro in meta-poky (if agreed), I'll still have to 
add a new image to config.json, but indeed not touching existing ones.

Richard, would you be open to this suggestion?
Cheers
Michael.
