This is a very good question but at the moment I can't answer you. Will try
to better understand.

In terms of jclouds, I think the interested part is not the images but the
hardwareProfile. The current implementation relies on
ProductItem.description so it could fail under certain circumstances, I'm
afraid.
https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/blob/master/providers/softlayer/src/main/java/org/jclouds/softlayer/compute/strategy/SoftLayerComputeServiceAdapter.java#L165-L177


which basically starts from the ActivePackages to filter only the "Cloud
Server".
Are you aware of more reliable SoftLayer API that we can reuse also in
jclouds?

Thanks,
Andrea
