Will the image still attempt to download instance metadata over the
network (via cloud-init or some other mechanism), or is this excluded?
I think the cloud-init part is the most problematic (even dangerous)
aspect of using the existing cloud images under KVM.
cloud-init doesn't *have* to do that. It generally doesn't if it
doesn't recognize the hypervisor platform.
