Currently I am more often booting a new iso image in qemu-kvm, than one from a 
USB stick. There it would be nice to simply run some "implant-locale" script 
to the iso, without the need to copy all contents onto a virtual USB device. 
And the information from the iso could also be used by a livecd-iso-to-disk 
script that can set the keyboard layout and locale somehow.
