On the Raspberry Pi Fedora Remix I'm shrinking the image as much as

This results in a small image size, minimizes unnecessary writes to the
SD card, works on any card size, and lets you take full advantage of the
space on the card.

Perhaps we should adopt that approach for the images?

Would be happy to add this- with that sort of functionality I'd have no reservation about creating a 1.990GB image. Send me a pointer to how you're doing this during the first boot and I'll integrate it into the rootfs image generator.
