Right!
But back on-topic for a change . . . .

I can think of something we could do for the people who have boot-looped their Kindles.

Issue a 'patch package' for Kubrick.

There is only one Kubrick distribution and we control how it behaves internally.
So there is only one solution set to maintain.

What I imagine, is:
*) Install Kubrick on read/write media (USB stick)
*) Add our 'patch package' to that media
*) Boot Kubrick
*) Escape to command line
*) Run our 'patch package' (which would add u-dev rules and/or drop some scripts with mount points that we know will happen inside of Kubrick environment).
*) Then do something magic to make it all wait for a Kindle
*) Plug in bricked Kindle and re-boot the Kindle.

I.E: we wouldn't have to deal with every OS distribution in the world, only our own.
