The Ubuntu Images have an extra bit that happens on first boot where it expands itself to consume your entire SD card.
Sounds a good trick; can't we just use that as well?
We discussed that at the UDS session; although it's good for an image which is intended to be installed once and then used a lot thereafter, it doesn't work quite so well for one-off testing, since it makes the initial startup a lot slower (and the extra work can be unhelpful if you were eg interested in timing or profiling system boot).
