I think this is more of a distro decision than machine, whether they want
to support use of bmaptool for their users/customers. It’d be nice if it
was easier to control compression from the distro, too. For example, if we
want to distribute wic.bz2+wic.bmap in our installers, it’d be nice to be
able to switch to that for all machines that use wic. I’m not sure how best
to pull that off, however. Something to think about for the future.
