1. One can always run a deb or rpm environment in a VM
2. Root is required because MIC uses a double jail environment -- so a
lot of mounting, binding and chrooting is going on. One can always
script the process and use sudo to accomodate regular-user execution.
Try: image-creator --help
3. What, specifically, do you miss about OpenEmbedded? Setting up the
toolchain? (MIC makes that easy)  Bitbaking packages?
