Hi again,

First of all, obviously it makes almost always sense to share at least the
ideas, if not the implementation with others. And that's obviously much easier
if it is integrated into FAI itself. Yet I think two questions are to be
answered:

- Is this change useful for anybody else?
- Will it break existing configs?

If the answers are "yes" for the first one and "no" for the second one it
probably best goes in mainline FAI. Otherwise it doesn't :-)

Best,
Michael
