I will add the uses cases in v2. The current use case is to add tooling 
or configuration items to a unified kernel image during runtime from a 
encrypted disk.

Additional uses cases are adding additional tooling to read-only root

or enabling ssh.

Also systemd-reparted could be used as an alternative to wic.
