This allows a clean seperation between all image outputs and making it possible to have convinience symlinks to make it ready to deploy. And while it isn't a valid reason, it must be mentioned: BSP layers which do use convenience symlinks already don't step on files owned by others anymore.
I assumed this was the default behaviour in OE-classic, but as it turns out every DISTRO set it to deploy/images/$MACHINE on its own. Code inspections shows that the all references to the image deploy dir in classes and scripts in OE-core do the right thing and parse the DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE variable.
