Public bug reported:

This request may relate more to the images being built than to the
vmbuilder tool itself.

Most of the popular EC2 images are distributed with the EC2 AMI tools
installed.

Users may expect these to be installed and may find it inconvenient if
they are not provided.

One common use case is to run an EC2 image, install and configure
software, and then rebundle the instance as a new image.  This requires
the ec2-bundle-vol command which is part of the EC2 AMI tools.
