Proposal: VM image for ARM 64 Bit

I’d like to use VM image with Home Assistant OS for Raspberry Pi. Is this possible?

There is an image for 64bit Raspberry Pi4, but I doubt if you can run virtual machines on a Pi 4.

You can run KVM VMs on Raspberry Pi.

I ask because it’s much easier to backup a virtual machine than a SD card. I think this option would be useful for Home Assistant on Raspberry Pi. Also, as more and more ARM computers exist, this is also fantastic for VMs on other machine types like the upcoming Mac Mini/Pro from Apple or other ARM-based Computers that could be able to run HA OS in a VM.
