My mistake. I still remember texlive-union, which built a union
directory from its inputs — that union directory and its config file
could not be composed with other files or packages. Propagating it
would have been pointless.
This texlive-union eventually gave way to texlive-updmap.cfg, which only
creates font map files, while propagating its inputs. The font map
files should be usable as is, and since the inputs are propagated the
texlive-base profile hook can generate them anew (together with other
installed texlive-* packages) when needed.
So I guess this is fine after all. Sorry for the noise!
I have applied your patch.
