Its a performance issue. I can see the attraction of putting these into
sstate however it would add significant time to the builds which many
people would find unacceptable.

Having manifests of deployed files is a huge win for a whole variety of
reasons and it standardises our output tasks. This compromise gives us
that without the performance hit of compressing everything into an
sstate artefact.

Cheers,
