Same here. I think the confusion arised over whether installing cloud-init
from wheezy backports (which I support) or whether installing cloud-init from
wheezy-backports and adding wheezy-backports to the sources.lists of those
images (which I don't support, as it's not done for default debian
installations either).

I think that could be an acceptable compromise, but the image would then include a package without its corresponding source. I'm playing devil's advocate here, but isn't that against some debian policy ?

Since the package's only purpose is to initialize the image, security updates don't seems like much of a concern, but at the very least it feels a bit weird.
