This is the problem I'm trying to avoid. Perhaps it wasn't clear, but what I 
meant was change things so we do not bring in psplash via a task anymore - 
instead use the value of VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_splash within core-image.bbclass, 
controlled via an IMAGE_FEATURE.

What's the use case for changing the splash image after booting?
