importing SDKs in the form of tarballs or ostree checkouts, building software
components and exporting SDKs or deploying bootable filesystem images will be
included in BuildStream, but it is expected that projects forge their own custom
-elements for doing more elaborate things such as running custom CI tests or deploying
-software in special ways.
