I can make it do that, but personally I even felt like gunzip support was
somewhat over-featured.  Do you think it needs to support .img.tar.gz ?

right now, the image file is distributed in 2 ways:
- inside a multi-file archive base.tar.gz:
  <base>.img
  <base>-kernel-flavor
  <base>-initrd-flavor
- inside a single-file archive <base>.img.tar.gz

Do you think we need to support resizing from that archive?

I'd rather just drop uncompres/extract support all together.
