I have heard multiple requests for making general SD card (or USB stick) style images so I would love to see something generic. The script as it stands looks like it has some issues due to requiring root access (and/or special mounts). There was a previous attempt at this in OE-Core: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/classes/boot-directdisk.bbclass but this has some issues making assumptions about sector size that caused problems. On the plus side it demonstrated it was possible without root...
