Comments/Problems:

I modified the sarge-i386-businesscard.iso, to include some packages on
the cdrom (ie. the local mirror that apt-move maintains); and remastered
with the current beta3 boot image.

The extra packages were put in the directory "extra" ;) Unfortunately,
when selecting the mirror, I could not choose file://cdrom/extra.

Alternatively, I'd burn the sarge iso as a session, and then add the
extra packages in another session in the "dists" and "pool" directories,
though this might conflict with the files on the first session
(dists/unstable is a link there and would become a directory...)

*We* don't need to do anything to make the CDs multi-session. The user
just needs to burn them appropriately to allow future sessions. This
isn't a bug...
