I've approached the debian live-build community a couple of times. I
think the armhf support is a no brainer and yes I'll push the couple
of necessary changes for that upstream into debian.

meta bld information unfortunately is really just for linaro so I
don't see much interest in that but you never know.

The addition of multistrap support has also been discussed upstream.
It seemed that between debootstrap, cdebootstrap, mutlistrap and/or
plan D, the live-build community had an interest in creating plan D. I
haven't seen anything sprout up yet. It's been a good 6 months so who
knows perhaps the winds have changed.

In the case of multistrap, it does support multiple archives for
bootstrapping a system, which is a desirable trait given our use of
the overlay ppa.
