In oe.dev I can use this: http://cgit.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/tree/recipes/meta/external-toolchain-angstrom.bb to 'import' an angstrom toolchain built with 'bitbake meta-toolchain', but I'm not sure how to do that in OE-core.

sstate is the best way to catch #2 and I know in general there's "look
at this URI for the file you want" bits. I haven't yet started kicking
the tires on sstate as hard as I have for packaged-staging however.
For #1, I believe external toolchains are to be supported still, but I
don't know off hand if the recipes still work (but there is both an old
CSL one as well as a poky toolchain one in meta/recipes-core/meta/).
Another area on my TODO list...
