Sounds good to me!

It=E2=80=99s already in =E2=80=98core-updates=E2=80=99 so I consider it =E2=
=80=9Cdone=E2=80=9D, at least for
this initial variant.  But yeah, I expect there=E2=80=99ll be incremental
improvements that will allow us to gradually reduce the set of bootstrap
binaries, and also more architecture support (I know people have worked
on ARM support recently.)
