Just note that I mean blocking by "supported". I am not talking about
dropping capability of installation from optical media. Might have been
slight misunderstanding and bad wording on my side. Also, I doubt that your
"large portion" is correct.

It doesn't matter what was or wasn't supported. WIth definition of what I
mean with "supported" above, if this proposal is accepted, UNetbootin
wouldn't be supported too differently than physical optical media. Users
would be able to report bugs with these methods and those bugs wouldn't be
release blocking.

Practically speaking, I'd say that adding the same warning as is in
UNetbootin section in Fedora Docs [0] to the Live CD section [1] would make
sense, but this is just an idea and probably out of scope of this thread.
