Awesome.

Feel free to file a blueprint for it. I also discussed with some people the other day the idea of allowing some additions to the config drive api to allow you to specify an unattend.xml when booting an instance that would put it in the proper place on the config drive. We could create an extension for this or perhaps just accept it in user-data. Would that be enough for you?
