This is something I would love to enable as well.

One of the requirements we have with Midonet is to be able to
parametrize the image build, since we need to add extra packages on it.

For the deployment options, I also think that it should not be hard either.

If you want to discuss it in any TripleO meeting, let me know.

Count on us, Emilien.
