Yes, that's similar to how some distros (eg. yocto) do it.

But my requirements are a bit more complex:

In my final meta-config, I just wanna say:

* i have board A (possibly multiple boards)
* i need features X, Y, Z (eg. eth, display, can, ext4, acl, ...)

And that shall be all to generate a minimal config for exactly those
requirements.

Doing that by just putting config snippets together, quickly turns into
a maintenance hell. At least you'd need recursive dependencies and some
if/else logic.

That's why I've written kmct:
