- ambiguous option list with regards to parameters
* xen-create-image --dist=... / sources.list generation should be more fine-grained
* Interactive Password Handling (maybe also the passwd role)
xen-tools should offer the possibility to enabled/disable
security/volatile/backports as well as
contrib/non-free/universe/restricted/multiverse for each of them
not only based on defaults plus the Dom0's sources.list
One idea is to allow parameters like
--dist="lenny:main,contrib,non-free;security;volatile:main"
and maybe (if the default will be to include security) to also
allow
--dist="lenny;no-security"
The second idea (by Mathieu Parent) is to have an
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/ which then contains files like
lenny.list, lenny-server.list, karmic.list, etc. which defaults to
$dist.list, but can be also select with --sources-list=lenny-server
(which looks for ./lenny-server.list, ./lenny-server,
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/lenny-server.list and
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/lenny-server in that order).
Third variant is to use /etc/xen-tools/sources.lists/ instead of
/etc/xen-tools/sources.list.d/ because that directory is no
runparts-like directory.
* Interactive Password Handling
Allow setting the password again if we failed on the first try.
This is just a mater of wrapping the passwd call in a loop.
Shouldn't give up after only one password missmatch. This is just

Currently no locales are set and this causes several domU errors which appear
in the domU's logs.
Maybe for a 4.3 or 5.0 release
