I believe what could be done is to create and extended installer image with
the packages need for testing available.
It could work similarly to how the barebones closure is included right now.
These images would be quite big, and impractical for anything but testing.
I believe that having a simple very big image is better than having
separate smaller ones for testing. This would also allow us to create a
selection of images with different de/service options for direct download
if the need arises, by expanding the list of configuration templates, and
the test image can be simply created by including the closure of all the
template configs. Wdyt?
