Would you consider creating an AppImage for maim?

Here's a sample maim.yml recipe that repackages the Ubuntu package:

app: maim
union: true

ingredients:
  dist: focal
  sources:
    - deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main universe

script:
  - cat > maim.desktop <<\EOF
  - [Desktop Entry]
  - Encoding=UTF-8
  - Name=maim
  - Comment=Make Image
  - Exec=maim
  - Type=Application
  - Icon=maim
  - Categories=Utility
  - EOF
  - touch maim.png

It can be used with pkg2appimage. The resulting AppImage seems to work properly.
