Am I roughly correct in saying that this is?

  - An image registry API which exposes the mapping of an image 
    identifier to cloud provider specific images, perhaps also tracking 
    multiple versions/builds of an image

Your "client for factory" description makes it sound like you can submit
a build request through image-management-service, but I don't see that
in the code?

Whatever ... this kind of effort is exactly the way to be moving
forward. Kudos to you and Martyn.

One suggestion I'd make for this would be to concentrate 100% on a nice
API and CLI for it. Make it easy to integrate with it. Make it so you
can go and promote this and image factory together completely
independent of conductor and all the rest.

Cheers,
Mark.
