I have to disagree: we don't 'know' exactly when an image needs updating.
We have the information needed to figure out which image(s) need updating,
but it's in a form that still needs to be sorted through. Sorting through
it isn't too hard, but it's still not trivial. It would be much less work,
even from where we are, to spit out some make-style dependency files, and
let make do the work.
I think.
