Hum... I see your point, but I really dont understand what you mean with "the token that jinja should add by default, and then a recipe can add its own token during the distribution part".

If this could be made, is very nice as the recipes can "push" their own needs to the AndroidManifes.xml in the future, like BT permissions for some PyBluez recipe...

Anyway, I am willing to accept your suggestion, as soon as I can understand how to do this.
