I agree. This should be queued up by Bruno to commit.
He said he was planning on doing some patch rollups or some testing of
some reviews
and since we allow using the DVD ISO with livecd-iso-to-disk
there is no reason we should not have the netinstall ISO treated properly.

It would be one thing if we didn't have DVD ISO functionality built
into livecd-iso-to-disk
but we do, and this should be a completely transparent difference to users who
find out livecd-iso-to-disk can be used on Install media or the
Official Live CD media.
Netinstall ISO falls into the category of install media.
