Because the tooling does not support it currently ?

Only a very few needs to be kept (namely, the transformer broadcaster in 
drivers/orogen/transformer) and implementing it properly in syskit will 
be a bit challenging (how do you NAME the task ?), so I really don't see 
the point here ...

Ack. rock-create-orogen does not create one anymore on master.
