Which other tools? The point here is to avoid having to store the image
in a filesystem before putting it on a stick. If jigdo doesn't support
it, I don't see how another tool could make it happen.

The only alternative I see is to use wget -O /dev/sdb, but then we don't
get jigdo support (use of local debian archive or ISO CDs), which is not
recommended by Debian since it prevents a lot of optimizations.

Really, I don't see how to achieve the same (use of local debian archive
etc.) without stuffing the support in jigdo itself.
