Regarding why we are doing this here and not in a separate rpm,
@vkuznets
might have a more detailed answer but the main point is that it would be
easier to do it here, because addons are very lightweight and honestly we
don't think we will ship many of them. In addition creating a rpm could be a
more complicated process.
It seems unlikely that we will have kernel version specific addons. The use
cases discussed thus far all look like global addons. As such I think it is
preferable to treat these as global addons until someone comes along with a
clear use case for a version specific addon.
If we treat them as global addons, then at the very least they need to be in a
separate sub-RPM, so we can parallel install multiple UKI RPMs without the
addons clashing.
