Yes, I just implemented this for CocoaSqueak last week and it is REALLY 
nice.  Since the VM is rather small compared to the image (total size of 
package including image/changse/sources is 41 MB, the VM itself around a 
meg), it might make sense to save an image with a containig VM-package 
as a default.
