 I would like to add “console=ttyS0” to the append line in the isolinux.cfg

 I notice that the live.py script includes an $(extra) parameter.  Is it
 possible to add “console=ttyS0” to this $(extra) parameter?  If so, where
 should it be set?

 Is there a better way to pass such parameters directly through the kickstart
 file, such as with the “bootloader” parameter?

That's exactly how -- as the kickstart docs say
   bootloader --append=console=ttyS0
should do the trick with livecds and a real system install

But what if you need to remove a default parameter, e.g. rhgb from
the kernel parameter list on the livecd?

you can modify isolinux.cfg as you like in %post --nochroot
e.g. 
http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=ovirt-node-image.git;a=blob;f=ovirt-node-image.ks;h=6b9e2ace474d4c91f864038c8e07b6a43802eb13;hb=refs/heads/next#l61
