Currently, pkg can acted only with currently booted and working system.
Could be very useful to have ability to specify all working directories for pkg util.
Example - mount disk with FreeBSD installed, and run pkg install/upgrade on it.
To make it possible, we need to specify dir which acted as root dir of distribution with which we are working, plus directory with pkgng data.
I hope my idea is clear from this explanation.
