Public bug reported: Scenario: I have Ubuntu on my keyring. I meet someone who has Windows, which is currently broken. So I just reboot the computer to Ubuntu, where I show that you can open files, copy them, etc. The other person is so impressed by this, they ask how they can get Ubuntu for themselves. They do have a memory stick, so I tell them I can just make it bootable the same way, if they want to. They do!
It shouldn't be necessary for me to either have a redundant copy of the ISO or to perform lots of manual steps. This should be made very easy.
