What we need is the ability to restore an arbitrary image so that includes *downgrading* as well. Is there a way to use system-image for that ? Does it need to be modified ?

I.e.: is there a way to "upgrade" to an arbitrary image to get a phone in a pristine state as far as tests are concerned ?
That's what system-image-cli --build 0 will do, for all intentes and purposes.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-system-image/+bug/1192577 is related to this.
If ~phablet requires a different approach that's fine too, it's probably easier to reset a user home directory than the system itself and can be handled separately.
If tests don't clean up after themselves, we should probably fix that anyway?
