This is great! Been looking for this for a while. Just created a couple test images without any issues or surprises.
Variation on this theme: has anyone used 'Clonezilla live' or tried to rebuild a custom version? http://clonezilla.sourceforge.net/clonezilla-live/
It might be extremely useful to combine this with the Centos install/rescue/live CDs so that you could clone an image to disk, the continue into the rescue-mode setup that mounts the disk partitions so you can make any necessary changes (hostname, IP addresses, etc.) without rebooting.
