What are the requirements for these images?

What we currently do to create images is:
- take some ipkgs (currently all selected)
- extract them to a tmpdir
- create all selected images from this tmpdir

If we expand this to do this multiple times for different sets of ipkgs and
different images, would that cover your use-case?
