In our environment gpl3 is not banned across the distro but rather banned
only in the product image, with a targeted set of recipe tweaks aimed to
allow that image to build. Non-product images are still permitted to
contain gpl3 items. Since everyone has a different set of what goes into
their product image, and what doesn't, and there are inevitably various 3rd
party layers in the mix, I do not think a distro setting would make much
sense.
