Given that Anaconda has a built-in mechanism for addressing exactly this (the
updates.img), shouldn't we perhaps consider doing testing by providing
updates.img shortlinks on the BZ (with the diff being from the last-known-good
compose)?

Then testers can just boot with inst.updates=http://short.link/blah on the
kernel command-line and test that way.

The process for generating an updates.img isn't very onerous, IIRC; there's a
`make updates` target in the anaconda repo. So probably we could put together a
SOP for generating them (to avoid dumping this requirement perpetually on the
anaconda folks, though I hope they would be willing to help produce that document).
