Summary

The copying component is largely trivial, though it has been proposed that it would be useful to allow the user to choose whether to copy the pristine filesystem, or the version which has been modified during the session. If the modified filesystem is copied, some of the modifications made to it by casper must be reversed. This needs more discussion.
