I tried Jigdo once. Seemed pretty straightforward to me. Except for the
part where I wanted to pull files out of pre-existing .isos. Having to
loopback mount them is awkward and requires root. THAT part is a
disaster.

What jigdo really needs is it's own userspace ISO implementation. A
minimal implementation good enough to pull files out shouldn't be that
hard. Maybe gnome-vfs could be used...
