That's right. We should likely disable index stuff on non-amd64. You can
still use `docker import` and import a debootstraped image on non-amd64
hosts.
Reasonable. The only thing I'm concerned about is will it be still possible to re-enable index or import images from Docker Hub Registry (I've looked at the website a bit and they don't seem to expose the URL's of tarballs). If it's not possible then it would be a huge miss for i386 users to not being able to take advantage of vast library of prebuilt images on the Docker registry, while they're perfectly capable of doing so.

Thanks again
