Re:Announcing Ubuntu Core, with snappy transactional updates

Just my Ubuntu Xmas wishlist: I'd like to see "snappy" or "Ubuntu Core" in the repos. So I can install UC on my existing systems to convert them to snappy systems - is it possible at all?
BTW having a VirtualBox image would be nice too.
But, should we really consider debian packages obsolete? IMHO apt-get begin-transaction,rollback,commit commands would be great to have too - I would love them even if I'm required to convert all filesystems to btrfs or ZFS, and keep one or more snapshots.

snappy's additive, you can keep using Ubuntu traditionally if you want, just how some people continue to use traditional Ubuntu Server over say, the Ubuntu Cloud images.
