It's been rather well tested for the extremely narrow case I meant to cover,
which is building images from the official cloud kickstarts.

I like extlinux and I put on my laptop too -- but by hand after install.

It'd be nice to see it supported in more cases, but I don't have the time or
focus to work on that. If someone else wants to, cool. (But, it's going to
be a little difficult, because extlinux certainly _doesn't_ work in all
install situations supported by the installer, and that's a bit difficult to
configure.)
