I see your point now... The only place we could do it in image.bbclass
is immediately after rootfs_${IMAGE_PKGTYPE}_do_rootfs in do_rootfs()
function. But then we fall into the same issue you mentioned. The
post-process hooks would be executed before the intercept scripts...
The alternative would be to use the post-install hooks
(ROOTFS_POSTINSTALL_COMMAND) instead of post-process. These are executed
before the post-process hooks.
