If we took that route, I'd point the Serveraptor admin to the Hydra link
and ask them to download it once themselves, rather than having each
client download it.

But, making a qemu-image at each evaluation is not so good for
general distribution, because we won't have tested it as thoroughly as
the release image. We'd want the qemu-image to build only if all the
system tests passed.
