Exactly. And it's even less interesting to focus on it being a live CD
as we're working towards having common formats being used to describe
all of live images, a "tree spin", and even "installing from the
everything tree".
That said, I think we're likely to want to target a live CD as the
primary deployment/distribution vehicle.
