Feature idea
I would like to be able to create a custom allocation in genesis block when using a TemporaryGethChain. DevGethProcess in py-geth allows to define genesis_data parameter, which could be used to set account list and balances. However, this parameter is not passed in populus in LoggedDevGethProcess.

Research direction
Trace TemporaryGethChain into LoggedDevGethProcess and compare it with py-geth's DevGethProcess genesis_data parameter. Confirm how custom account allocations are supplied, then verify that a TemporaryGethChain can create its genesis block with those allocations.
