This is really powerful and nice, but it is very different from what we've called feature 'user_data' so far; we should call it something else, say 'user_iso' or whatever. We should also support straightup 'user_data', i.e. the ability to post a base64 encoded string on instance creation, which we will then put into a fixed file (say '/deltacloud-user-data.txt') in a new ISO image. > 3.
