Somewhat off topic: Is there an effort similar to this for CentOS 7? The centos minimal image is still rather large and I have to do some really ugly things to prune it down. Even then I can not get it down anywhere close to 80 MB. That would be amazing.

It's been my experience that people are less open to hacking CentOS/RedHat. It's pretty much you get what you get and changing anything makes it unsupported which defeats the purpose of using an enterprise distribution. That's not my opinion, it's what seems to be the community's opinion when you bring up things like using non-stock kernels.

Seems like it would make sense to have a CentOS version of RHEL Atomic Host/Fedora Atomic though? (I know nothing about CentOS)

CentOS is only community supported, so that is ok. I am not suggesting customizing kernels.
