I would be delighted to be able to install _and use_ two independent
set of packages from the same base system install.  Without recursing
to jails, X forwarding, etc.

In fact I would like to use /usr/local and e.g /usr/local-i386 on amd64
machine.  I am fine with me building both of them in my instance of
poudriere.

But indeed I am not sure if this worth the effort of many people, for many
hours.  If it puts too high burden on everybody, then it is not a good
feature.  Otherwise, it is very convenient in some situations.
