I think we should have a fully (downstream?) working image (32 or 64 bits) including HDMI, and WiFi (and maybe hardware video decoding?). Then, we might have a 2nd image which follow upstream and where we might have some things missing such as WiFi. If more versions are needed for testing/developing purpose, then we should use staging projects.
This is how is handled Raspberry Pi 1. The way that Raspberry Pi 1 is "handled" is that no one is taking care of the downstream Contrib image [*], but most users are misguided to use

What are the problems? I have some Pi 1 and Pi 2 running fine here with Contrib kernel.
[*] As reported multiple times, kernel-raspberrypi fails to build: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:RaspberryP...
Yes, I know, it is a warning which turned in an error with recent GCC. I will try to have a look.
Also keep in mind that openSUSE on x86 does not provide, e.g., Nvidia drivers in a Contrib either.
Therefore I am a strong advocate of switching to an official openSUSE image once the core drivers are in place. If someone wants extra acceleration, they should build a KMP, not a full separate image. Compare my earlier work on Mali: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:ARM:Factory:Contrib:Mali Even better work on or lobby the vendor for getting drivers upstream, if you need them.
Yes, KMP would be far better, but, AFAIK, there is no KMP source package available for RPi. :( Guillaume
