that's a pretty good point. In my opinion the fact that you need to set
environment variables in addition to your configuration files is a pain anyway.
I would expect bitbake to search for all configuration information in
$PWD/conf/*.conf and that's it. That would reduce the initial overhead and makes
it _much_ easier for new users to get along with OE.

Greetings
