If you take a look at [1] you'll see the config structure that is used by live-build to create images. By adding in the task metapackages, it's a really easy way of building live CDs/installer CDs.

Yep, this is also the way the existing live CDs are preferred to be built, by depending on task packages from desktop environments.
