That's something of a long term goal, but when you dig deep into it
they really are different things.  The common code that can be shared
is config file parsing (they both use pykickstart, so mission
accomplished somewhat), yum object creation, maybe some code sharing in
mkisofs calls for creating bootable isos out of directories, and that's
about it.  The crux of what these tools do is different enough that
mashing them together isn't necessarily the best of ideas.
