Description: GNOME app to create bootable USB drives
  Write disk images to your drives with ease. Select an image, insert
  your drive, and you're good to go! Impression is a useful tool for
  both avid distro-hoppers and casual computer users.
  .
  Impression is a GNOME Circle app.

There are already several tools that do this in Debian.

There are also already a lot of tools that do this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tools_to_create_bootable_USB

Given the description, it looks like a frontend to dd, and it explicitly mentions that it offers a subset of the functionality of GNOME Disks. Do we need this?

Will it also list Debian as 'GOOD_DISTROS' [1]?

With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
