I agree we ought to change this, but "recipes-images" isn't especially
consistent with how paths are used in OE layers. Recipes are found using
BBFILES, and at least in OE-Core its meta/recipes-*/*/*.bb - i.e. one layer
down from recipes-images.
If I were to suggest an alternative it would be to just use a different name
that doesn't imply connection with how images are found (e.g. "canned-wks" or
"wic" or something like that).
Cheers,
Paul
