I think in the light of what Paul said, the meta-ti behaviour is what is expected and changing will potentially complicate things for other meta-ti consumers who follow the convention; the problem is in meta-yocto, not meta-ti. The current problem can be worked around; it requires a custom layer that also prepends itself to the path in front of meta-yocto, and then provides a beagleboard.conf of it's own (which can simply 'include' or 'require' the beagleboard.conf from meta-ti). I think if Richard is working on a solution in meta-yocto, it might be enough to document this somewhere until it is ready.
