I updated the blueprint with a concrete proposal for a “Clone Persistence” option in Tails Installer, aka. Tails Cloner (Feature #16907).

I’ll ask for comments on it on tails-dev and tails-ux.

With segfault and intrigeri reviewing and acknowledging my proposal in https://lists.autistici.org/thread/20190816.170200.d4a94dd6.en.html I think that we have a plan now. Yay!
