Hey,

So I read [1] again and I think the instructions delete all the data.
The reason is that we use QA's script, and for QA this is important to
revert to a clean state. For us, users, it's important to keep the data.

It should be possible to shallow flash gecko+gaia without removing the
whole data. Backuping+restoring doesn't always work reliably (I just
tried, I think maybe some prefs should not be restored) and anyway it's
just longer than just flashing gecko+gaia.

Same when we flash images: I think it's enough to _not_ flash
userdata.img over the device.

Any possibility the tools could be updated for this? Should I file a bug
somewhere?
