Step for docker package selection
As of version 3.7.12 it is possible to use the "Transfer package" step and use the selected package on custom steps (e.g. push it to an s3 bucket).
However, when it comes to docker "packages" the only way to select a docker feed is by using one of the 3 default docker steps.
It would be nice to have a basic step which would allow us to select only the docker feed and have that step export the image+version (tag) to other steps.
In my case, this would allow me control the deployment of a specific image using custom templates (e.g. updating an AWS ECS service).

This is now possible with package references from script steps, introduced in Octopus 2018.8: https://octopus.com/blog/script-step-packages
In particular, see the Container Images section: https://octopus.com/blog/script-step-packages#container-images

We'd need this as well - We'd like to have the tags of an image available without using a Docker Run step - Excactly for the same use case, deploying to a AWS ECS service.
