Is it planned to use Zephyr Sysbuild for multiple images in future?

From a user perspective, MCUboot is yet another application; the app another. Currently the nrfconnect-SDK glues everything together by itself, but Zephyr now has the tools to implement this.

Here is an unofficial sample that might help: https://github.com/hellesvik-nordic/samples_for_nrf_connect_sdk/tree/main/bootloader_samples/keys_and_signatures/mcuboot_smp_encryption

Thanks for showing interest, I have forwarded internally. Feel free to also make a new ticket specifically addressing the Matter context.

This would be strongly requested, especially in the Matter context:

The normal build process creates a "matter.ota" file. To encrypt an image and create the respective *.ota file, there are a lot of additional steps to be done which basically double the generation of the *.ota file. This doesn't seem to be a viable option in the long-term.

It would be very beneficial adding the image encryption here, since this is relevant for products.
