OK, noted. I'm mainly using 4.x because it seems I need the new
--hdd-size feature; the existing size estimation code doesn't seem to
allocate enough space, perhaps because my "working area" filesystem
(initially btrfs, now tmpfs) has lower overhead than the one I'm using
for the binary image (ext4).

Thanks, that's useful information.

I can't devote enough time to this to implement the whole of your plan,
but now that I know where the goal is, I could make
bootstrap-(c)debootstrap read a file with that syntax if one is supplied
- that's a step forward at least.
