I decided to just go ahead and do this since, again, it's clearly the
Right Thing To Do (tm). I created a liveusb-creator (not livecd-creator,
that's something else entirely...) test case:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_USB_stick_Live_luc

following the general template of all Josef's test cases, and replaced
the 'livecd-tools' links on the Beta RC1 and installation results
template page with links to this new test case. the 'livecd-tools' test
was entirely redundant with 'livecd-iso-to-disk'.
