I am not a fan of this.  The community and design meetings have had a few 
discussions about tools (PyTools has been presented twice) and a few brief 
discussions about common patterns to build platforms but I don't think there is 
real alignment.  Each "platform" has its own way of doing things.

As for this patch, I don't really want to see a bunch of scripts added to edk2 
basetools that are not aligned with a community agreed direction (or any clear 
direction).  It has also been brought up that basetools as a python 
package/project is a challenge to work with and has some fundamental problems.  
Adding more in a similar design pattern is not how we start fixing it.   As an 
example for edk2-pytools, an RFC was offered and even then it was added as its 
own repositories to avoid more directly to the edk2 repo.

@Mike K - Any progress on getting a tools subtream setup?  Any governance ideas 
to help align these efforts.

Thanks
Sean
