It doesn't look like something to be changed in Isar.

But you could simply have custom expand script in you layer that does
things you need.

| meta-your-layer/recipes-support/expand-on-first-boot/expand-on-first-
boot_%.bbappend:
|
| ```
| FILESEXTRAPATHS:prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
| ```
| meta-your-layer/recipes-support/expand-on-first-boot/files/expand-
last-partition.sh

So, bitbake will take the script from your layer while other files of
the recipe will be taken from isar's `meta` layer.
