If this is how this feature is going to be implemented, I suggest to
reword this NEWS entry to make the intent and the feature easier to
understand:

  *** New command to start an inferior Emacs loading only specific packages.
  The new command 'package-isolate' will start a new Emacs process, as
  a sub-process of Emacs where you invoke the command, in a way that
  causes the new process to load only some of the installed packages.
  The command prompts for the packages to activate in this
  sub-process, and is intended for testing Emacs and/or the packages
  in a clean environment.
