There are a couple of things.
One important but overlooked usecase is offline repartioning. Modifing
the disk partioning is imposiple on a live disk(maybe with lvm). Its
nice to to have a equivalent of gparted live available for such works.

Another interesting idea is factory reset where the disk image is reset
to default fedora spin installation while maintaining /home.
