Not as small as I would like.  I did it using standard task-boot and a
couple of task-base packages, rather than do a custom package set up-front.

I expect it will be a good test case for determining what is appropriate
in task-base-foo packages ...

Be prepared for some packages to be removed - there is still a lot of
fat in there which is not strictly required by the defined image package
inclusion criteria.
