I firmly believe that the reason not having a template building UI is a problem, is because we keep telling people they have to build templates in order to do things. I further think if we want Conductor to be successful, we should fix it so people don't have to build templates unless they really, really want to.
As may be evident by some of my other replies, I am of the opinion that people will want to build their own images to install their own software.
However, even if we step back and take the tactic that people will always use pre-canned images, at the very least you need an "import image" GUI screen. If we start there, then we can see whether it is worthwhile to go further and have a full-up "choose your packages and install your OS" screen. Does that make sense?
