I don't quite get your vision for this section yet.
Most of the documentation that can be written about how to create a backend add-on will be relevant regardless of how Plone was installed, and also regardless of whether the add-on was created from a Cookieplone template, bobtemplates.plone, or by hand.
So mentioning buildout here is off topic.
And learning about GenericSetup is a piece of what goes into creating an add-on, but it's certainly not the only or the most important piece.

I created this file to jump start something for @petschki to work on. I have no vision about this whatsoever. If the snippets aren't needed, they can be tossed out.
I moved the snippets here from another document that had them as headings in a how-to guide, instead of in a conceptual guide. IOW no one does "How to Buildout and GenericSetup".
