Might be at some later point.

Also, I'm not sure it's actually needed: once we'll have packages 
available in various OSs, it would be trivial to create an image

Strictly speaking, I would rather object adding Apache2-licensed 
code to the project: it is not compatible with the BSD license 
nginx (and freenginx) uses.
