The issue is, a missing RRECOMMENDS will currently abort the build. Bitbake
doesn't treat RRECOMMENDS as optional to build, only optional to install,
so this approach is not viable. I'm still submitting v3 of this to get the
job done for now. Thanks for your thoughts, though, I actually agree that
your idea is a better method, it just doesn't work with bitbake as it
stands today!
