I'd have to look into it, but it shouldn't be hard. Starting VMs is
what it *does*, and if it can't support cloud-init already, I can add
it. I'm on vacation till the 19th, will follow up on this later.

It would be a good idea if the actual tests can be shared between test
systems as much as possible. I know the tests Autocloud ran were
basically just bash scripts - openQA could easily use those. What do
the tests run in kola look like?

There's also the question of whether we still want to ship/support the
Cloud Base images. For now they are still release-blocking
deliverables, but their status feels a little vague to me. It would be
good to figure out for sure whether we still consider them important,
if so why, and if so who is in charge of them.
