The first feature requests that when booting some media that you

that when you boot it again, you can roll-forward the changes from the
'tmpfs' on that medium and continue like it's a normal system. Does it
make sense?
This is really the important one, see my other response for more
details.
The second just wants USB media like the LiveCD but with a real RW
filesystem.
I think that for this, you should just install to the USB stick. That
should work these days and if it doesn't, then we should just fix it
rather than papering over by allowing something like this.
