There's no technical reason in limiting the combined image to x86 only. Infact some of the changes to live-fs-root and such will be common to both platforms. Others such as the changes to the GRUB menu obviously won't be. If we know of a use case for a bootable AI image for sparc, the design for it can be addressed as part of the current work as well.
