Would it be more feasible if all of the intelligence was on the client
side?  The client could slurp down a Packages file, work out which
packages to include and split them into CD-sized chunks, download the
debs from a mirror somewhere, then fetch the installer and whatever
else is necessary to make the CD usable.  It'd be like jigdo, but
taken one stage further.
