+Future Enhancement Requests
+---------------------------
+
+Note that our main concern, especially right now, is proving viability of some of the ideas and then showing it with the things that we already support. If things work out, then it should be doable to start putting in support for new things that we don't already have support for. Nothing in this list is guaranteed but if people have ideas about new things, put them here and they'll at least be considered.

+* run ssh server to enter crypto password or perform debugging (supported by debian)
+* Make it possible to easily extend the initramfs, e.g. by packages that provide additional features to the initramfs, e.g. an ssh server (partly? supported by initramfs-tools in debian. e.g. with /etc/initramfs-tools/hooks)
+* Hook in overlay filesystem like aufs/unionfs (necessary for Debian/Ubuntu LTSP and LiveCD etc.)
+* switchroot without re-running daemons like udev again (not sure if this is possible)
