Hi,
It has been my goal to support the LiveCD ISO also on a USB and let it make the changes you do in ~linux store persistently on the USB stick (so you can e.g. try easily the same thing on different computers).
Now I got my first bug report claiming this is not wanted and should only be done if explicitly asked for. Now it's me against the user and I can of course easily close WONTFIX, but I wonder what others thing: what is the use case of storing the live cd on a USB stick?
I think for me the most interesting would be to have 'my' system follow me. Something which I can't do on a live CD but I could with a 'live' memory stick, like taking my bookmarks and the like.
Would you really use that system a lot? If so, then a live stick might not be what you want, but rather a full .raw that you deploy on a dedicated stick using a real partition table and ext3. With the live system, you wouldn't even be able to do a meaningful online update without wasting a lot of space.
