I consider clean-staging less important than clean-target. Having things lingering around in staging is usually not a problem, except for the presence of some header or .pc of a library that is no longer present. Normally buildroot should disable old that in the configure step, but of course you can never be sure.
To implement a clean-staging, we'll probably need to use the copy-to-staging step of the external toolchains for all toolchains.
Regards,
Arnout
