Sorry to bring up an old post, but I haven't managed to find information in the 
mail archives and bugzilla on how the issue stands as of today.

The post I am referring to is as follows:
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2011-December/005951.html

I have two separate recipes for the same kernel version.
One with a kernel configuration with various options enabled to assist 
debugging.
The other with said options disabled.

Ideally, I would like to be able to set PREFERRED_PROVIDER to the kernel 
recipes in custom image recipes for the same machine.
This is something that is being discussed in the referred post above.
Does anyone know if such functionality is being pursued in a future release of 
Poky?

I haven't heard of anything myself, local.conf, distro configs or
separate machines are how this is still currently being done.

We have quite a bit of flexibility in the way that kernel configs
can be stacked and used since the thread that you noticed, so there
are options in that area to pursue as well. There's been planning
around image creation and construction lately, that could also end
up helping a use case such as this down the road.

As to whether or not work is planned in the areas of images and
preferred providers, Richard would know.

Cheers,

Bruce
