You have a point.
Then again things in recipes/nonworking and recipes/obsolete are
generally considered as very broken.
I would not want the task to repair all packages that are outside
these dirs and also not working on some targets/situations.

That is why I mentioned that if we want such a dir, we need a policy
on what/when could go in there.
(e.g. by requiring that a move to broken is ack-ed by 2 other devs).
