You should probably be selling that if it works well. That is something I have not seen.

You should try it! Our baking interface looks more like Docker than a traditional VM provision (ala Packer)

Also, we keep the baked images around for a week and trigger them whenever they are requested (with, say, HTTP, or terminal access)
