Hmmm... you're the official expert about kindletool and update images

Wouldn't it be relatively trivial to repackage the "official" bin into an "unofficial" one, by simply replacing the rootfs image?

I sort of lost track about all the different "update modes" which seem to be present in the update.bin files, but if kindletool can unpack such "full restore images", couldn't it also pack them?

(Of course, that would require the jailbreak to be installed initially, for the update's signer key to be accepted during the update. But other than that, it'd essentially be the same)

Or am I getting something wrong?
