I agree. As I wrote, this "feature" was introduced sometimes during
f16 and I don't like it either but curently this is the only way to
build a livecd. File a bug if you want to.

Since selinux needs to relable the fs at the end I don't know if if
can do this (as well as installing the rpms on the target-fs) from a
user account.
