A little bit of concern about this with AdditionalStores, but this is better then what we have now.

Can you elaborate on your concerns, @rhatdan?

Do users expect to get all of the usage back if they remove all layers, since the removal will not remove AdditionalStore layers.

I would be surprised if users would expect read-only images to be cleaned up.

I agree, I just see them being confused. If I list out how much space layers are taking, then they might expect that resetting will free up X storage, but when they clean, they will end up only removing X-y storage, where y is in additional images.

Most people don't use additional stores, so it should not be a problem, but Edge seems to be adopting AdditionalStores as core principal, for OS Image based containers.
