Of course, I would recommend to do development builds of such images
often (basically like d-i, i.e. daily). If that happens, then we can
have you in the loop to provide images basically more or less at the
time of release - in case it doesn't take too long. (Of course, this
would be an "additional feature", and in case things go wrong, we
could always decide to delay image creation a bit).
