Hi, I frequently use the 3rd option (generally to install development versions of openSUSE without having to burn discs) Where I extract the content of .iso file, and change some lines in initrd to look for USB drive instead of de CDROM. I don't like the raw USB images (like the ones in susestudio) because they take forever to 'install' on usb drivers and that's a price that I don't want to pay ;-) Of course, this is my use case...

Agree with you. By default, I think it makes sense to write on the stick.
But I can imagine that for demo purposes, it'd be nice to have a "Reset to default settings" option that would just wipe out all the user data (in ~linux). (or if it's possible to reset everything, then that could work too)
Have a look at Slax. It provides two entries in the boot menue. The first one starts a persistent system, the second one with clean settings. This would be a nice feature.
Read-only-mode must not be the default one for USB sticks, it's just silly.
