LiveCD Vesa Mode, menu option like Anaconda install media?

[Warren Togami]

The old answer to "how do I use LiveCD in vesa mode?" was xdriver=vesa. 
  This doesn't seem to be working with Fedora 11 Alpha where X crashes 
the Radeon 7500 of my Thinkpad T41.

Anyhow, I'm wondering if people would be in favor of adding a syslinux 
menu option to boot into vesa mode similar to how Anaconda install media 
now has?

With Radeon's in rawhide, futzing with the nomodeset parameter is a good
way to get things working again.
