To be honest, I'm not happy with the current rootfs/package code as
there are way too many differences between the backends and too much
duplicated code. Its heading towards being an unmaintainable mess.

Your patch starts to unwind some of that so as far as I'm concerned that
is a good thing. I'd not realised it was an RFC when it was presented as
part of the consolidated pull but I think its a good thing to have in.
I'd really like to see more patches like that one.

Cheers,

Richard
