Bug Description

It would be nice if you could:

phablet-flash --version 20130703.1

To flash not the latest, but the mentioned image. If still available, it should get downloaded from cdimage, or if not, try and use the default local ~/Downloads location.

This is kinda crucial for when there's a borked image as latest. Which of course shouldn't happen, but can. We need an easy way to roll back.

Does --ubuntu-path or --device-path solve this for you?

I'm actually unsure how to use those ;)

--base-path helps, but requires you to download (or have downloaded
already) the files manually.

I found out you can do something like this

"phablet-flash ubuntu-system --channel=trusty-proposed --revision 29 -b"

which works for me, just the -h output doesn't list it.
