As has probably been noticed, there are a lot fewer

One option that I'm missing at the moment is the "--repo" option.
I know the syntax sucked, and you couldn't specify a mirror list, but I
found it useful where you have default URLs of the repos in the
kickstart file but you expect most users to have a more local mirror of
those repos. Allowing them to just override on the command line is much
nicer than requiring them to edit the kickstart file.
e.g. the instructions to a developer might be:
$> git-clone <my-kickstarts-repo> kickstarts
$> cd kickstarts
$> livecd-creator --repo fedora,file:///my/mirror -c foo.ks
$> <hack on the kickstarts>
$> git-commit
but now it's:
$> git-clone <my-kickstarts-repo> kickstarts
$> cd kickstarts
$> <edit foo.ks to change the repo URL>
$> livecd-creator -c foo.ks
$> <hack on the kickstarts>
$> <edit foo.ks to change the repo URL back to the default>
$> git-commit
Cheers,
Mark.
