Ok. Maybe can be generate the cloudinit iso file with  vmid-digest.iso ?
Like this no need to store the dgest  in vmid.conf ?

Also, Do we need to set theses changed values in pending or not ?

I would generate a Digest using all cloud-init related values, and re-gererate 
the iso at VM start 
if the digest has changed.
