[ec2-beta] AMI platform

Hello,
When I view a list of AMI's I've created, I notice they are all listed as
having a platform of "other linux".
I'm just curious, but is there a way to indicate that it is "Ubuntu" vs
"Fedora" (unfortunately, I have to support an older codestream that only
runs on FC7).

I could store the AMI's in different S3 buckets whose names reflect the
distro, but given that the AWS Management Console allows you to filter on
"platform", it would be nice to be able to have the field say "Ubuntu" (or
"Fedora" or...)

Is there something I can manipulate in the manifest.xml?   Command line
arguments to ec2-bundle-volume (or other)?   Ways to specify it post-upload
via the AWS Management Console?

Cheers,
