Hi Trevor,
thank you for these suggestions!

That's probably a solution, but... to which problem?
I suspect there are other solutions to the same problem, that would
perhaps avoid creating a user support nightmare, making difficult
upgrades, and generally creating fragmentation among whatever modified
system people run and call "Tails" :)

Data point: last time I checked, *if* one already has a Tails USB
stick with a persistent volume, boots from a Tails DVD, and plugs the
USB stick at the right time, then the persistent volume from the USB
stick is available. Granted, this is certainly not easy to teach, nor
to understand.
I'm not sure what you mean exactly with "log into", so could you
please describe in more details the entire user story that you would
like to make possible (e.g. "I burn Tails on DVD, then I boot from
this DVD", etc.)?
This would help estimating how much work this would be, and balancing
this with the (marginal at best, when using persistence, I guess)
security bonus it would provide.
Cheers,
