I suppose this is OK as an immediate fix.  However, I'd suggest going 
forward that we think seriously about a more formal interface boundary 
between construction and management of the images, with the image 
including metadata that the tools consume rather than the tools 
attempting to infer the treatment of the image based on the presence or 
absence of implementation-specific files.  For example, the .image_info 
file on the live CD is a start at something which could be applied more 
broadly.
