This all seems really abstract.

How about the first step is - take all of the transitive build dependencies
starting from the kernel, put those in a separate rpm-md repository from
everything else?

That'll drive the answer to lots of other problems like for how long
do we keep synthesizing the "gigantic Everything repo" in addition vs
changing over the fedora-repos package, etc.  How to manage migrating
things between them, when a new build dependency appears, etc.

There's of course a lot more possible radical steps to take - to repeat,
I really like the OpenEmbedded code organization, model, toolchain etc.,
but if we can't even manage to split into two repos with any kind of speed,
at least it'll be an informative exercise.
