For the persistence feature, I am looking for a set of patches that 
apply for the current livecd-tools package. I am currently comparing 
livecd-tools 015 and 014. Since the persistence feature was added in the 
015 version, I will try to extract the required patches from the 
differences between both versions. Any help on this front would be 
appreciated.

If you have a kickstart file ready with such functionalities, publishing 
it on the LiveCD trac website would be the first step. Adding a 
documentation page explaining how to build such a LiveCD and what are 
its benefits would come next.

I definitely think so. The tools are currently hosted on my own website. 
It works but putting these packages on an official CentOS repository 
would be better.
