It would be nice to support tarball source images (such as those generated by [buildroot](http://buildroot.org/)). Basically, instead of running debootstrap, just `tar xf` to the right directory.
Having propellor generate the buildroot would be nice as well, but isn't needed right away.

+I've introduced a ChrootBootstrapper type class, of which Debootstrapped
+is just one member. Everything that bootstraps chroots uses this
+type class, so you can write a separate module that uses buildroot, or
+whatever. And you're welcome to contribute such a module to propellor.
+
+As far as having propellor generate a tarball of a chroot, the way to do
+that is something like:
+
+ chroot dir `onChange` mktarball dir
+
+Ie, compose the chroot creation property with one that tars it up.
