Interesting project!
If I understand correctly, you are asking whether someone (you?) could
work on providing vagrant images based on Debian ones, but with custom
kernels builds.
The answer is yes: what we use to generate Debian images is publicly
available at https://salsa.debian.org/cloud-team/debian-vagrant-images/,
and it should be reasonably easy to derive from it to build custom images.
And we would welcome patches to help such customization work, if that's
useful for you.
Let me know if I can help somehow.
