Like Lucian/Nux said this can be very helpful in other situations as
well. ConfigDrive allows for metadata to reach the Instance without
networking function or DHCP.

In IPv6-only environments this can also work very well, so yes, it would
be great if this works in other offerings.

When I have the time I'll dig into this and see if I can get it working.
