I'm going to try this in -proposed, so that I can get a test:

livecd-rootfs grabs SEEDMIRROR/SEED/BASE_SEED.minimal-remove if it exists, strips all comments from it and stuffs it in a file "filesystem.manifest-minimal-remove" which is outputted by the build.

ubuntu-cdimage downloads the file from the livefs build, and debian-cd includes it in the ISO. AFAICS this is what's needed. I'll make both of those changes and deploy the branches to nusakan.

Assuming that works, I'll get an ISO with the file in /casper and then I'll test on that ISO and change Didier's ubiquity branch to use the new file.
