Please propose patches. I am fine with this deviation (and don't have time either). Moreover, other systems, notably bootstrap-vz, already have this possibility. I think work should not be done in multiple places and I would favor bootstrap-vz whenever possible (but currently, your Openstack images are the most official ones, so I am using them and they are working just fine; on our platform, they boot in less than 15 seconds, cloud-init included). -- All things that are, are with more spirit chased than enjoyed. -- Shakespeare, "Merchant of Venice"
