I'd much rather stick with than create orphans for the likes of lvm / anaconda / kudzu etc. They are all fairly critical portions of the distro, and while being on a livecd is fine, when they get transfered over onto an installed machine, its something a user would expect to be 'CentOS'.
I haven't looked yet at how Anaconda does live CD installs, but can't we modify it to install our versions of these packages during the installation?
And I am not sure if we can even do this sort of a thing as a CentOSPlus livecd, unless someone wants to take on the job of maintaining these packages in the plus repo, and doing enough to make sure it continues to work with the base distro.
Quite painful to do so for seven years :(.
