Because the there exists a one-to-one (or almost one-to-one) 
correspondence between the volatile conf file and the specific image.

If there is a 'sato-volatile-conf' package, then there should be a 
'minimal-volatile-conf', and maybe a 'custom-volatile-conf' if users are 
using a customized image.

So I think it's simpler to let the image recipe provide the conf file.
The only thing we have to do, when adding read-only rootfs support to 
some image, is to add the conf file to SRC_URI and install it in 
choose_volatile_conf.

Kind Regards,
Chen Qi
