The bleeding edge variant has been introduced for the first time by Zhe He
of Wind River 6 months ago, and hasn't been updated since. If I had kept
that in, it would actually be providing an older version of the component
than the main variant. So I am not sure if it's actually being used; if it
is, then it should see more frequent updates.

Another problem is that devtool isn't able to upgrade the main variant
properly with this included. I'd rather split it it into a different
recipe, if someone confirms the need.
