This approach is useful, for sure, but it will be better if you wants to start xnest, to clean things a bit: 1 - before x11 starting we need to create a user and a home directory 2 - when we exit from x11 we will need to copy the home user relevant files to /etc/skel and then delete the user and the home dir (switchable, like -- keep-user=<username>) 3 - Since this processing is not so duplicable, it could be nice if all modifies can be diffed form the clean make-live run, so in a later build (think of weeks) this part could be skipped and just provider with --include-chroot. To achieve point 3 the best thing to do IMHO is to implement the stackablefs part we discussed long time ago, that I started implementing in my branch, that way such a diff could be really easy to produce and could be just kept in a .squashfs file from build to build. (I'm talking about unionfs on build side) Without point 3; 1 and 2 will sounds hackish and not easy reproducible, as the good Synrg said on #irc. -- ESC:wq
