I don't think that there is any specific reason to chop localizations
from ext3 (qemu-oriented) images.  If anything it's caused headaches for
groups needing a localized qemu image.  I'm not really sure of what
benefits there are as such images are not to be installed on XOs.

Are we in agreement on this?
