Ooops, i'll add it up.

Not really IMHO.
Grub2 can in theory understand btrfs, but that would be realistically
speaking a x86/amd64-only thing.
And then btrfs-progs AFAIK doesn't include any tool to create images
like genext2fs does, it talks directly with block devices.
Sudo with loopback is a bit dangerous and off the charts i think.
Regards.
