We do - specifically for trunk testing work on the current development
release; I'd also rather manage the image data using simplestreams
sync's (we are already doing this) and switch the stream in via
environment configuration rather than having to push images into
specific environment for daily testing.

I already raised a bug for this:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/juju-core/+bug/1217397

it would be great if it could get some attention for the next release.
