I think that's an interesting point: It would be nice if one could
call that part of the template script that transforms a 'raw' root fs
into an lxc-suited root fs separately.

This would have other advantages, too: for example, when a newer
version of the template script does some things differently, one could
use it to 'update' the existing root fs without the need to download
things again.
