I don't see sentiments towards fully free isntaller images. There is just nobody who wants to build them. I THINK that they might become official some day if somebody steps up, does the work and shows that they are willing to do that for at least one release cycle. Until nobody is there who is willing to do the work, it is moot to discuss whether those images could be official or not. If they don't exist, they won't be official. Easy. I still haven't heard arguments why people refuse to use an installer that comes with non-free firmware, asks whether this firmware should be used, and if answered "no", none of this non-free firmware ends up in the installed system. The resulting system is free regardless whether there was non-free firmware on the installation images.
