It seems almost certain the permissions for /dev/ttyUSB* won't stick,
unless you fix them with udev rules (or some other means but udev's the
tool for the job in my opinion).

Do you really want to set all ttyUSB* to 777? Not 666 or 660 for
example? The usual way is to apply a udev rule to a specific USB product
and vendor ID which you can get from lsusb. But to change permissions on
device files I think you can do

KERNEL=="ttyUSB*", MODE="0777"

in a udev rule file.
