[OE-core] couple questions about IMAGE_FEATURES and package groups

first, in the list of "Available IMAGE_FEATURES" in
core-image.bbclass, should there be additional entries for
staticdev-pkgs and ptest-pkgs? for the sake of completeness?
also, i'm under the impression that the IMAGE_FEATURES is
*primarily* used to refer to package groups, but it also supports a
small number of "validitems" that are processed specially, as shown in
image.bbclass:
# IMAGE_FEATURES may contain any available package group
IMAGE_FEATURES ?= ""
IMAGE_FEATURES[type] = "list"
IMAGE_FEATURES[validitems] += "debug-tweaks read-only-rootfs package-management"
but core-image.bbclass has a package group for that last item:
PACKAGE_GROUP_package-management = "${ROOTFS_PKGMANAGE}"
which doesn't appear to represent an actual package group? is that
just a mistake? or what does it mean?
