 Marco,

  launching your cd, customize it, then use the snapshot feature to
  build a squashfs out of /cow, then remaster oputting this squash on
  /casper dir on the iso.

 Seems very nice, is it documented somewhere? Can you give us a start?

man casper-snapshot :-)
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive/casper-snapshot

$ casper-snapshot -t squashfs

it should place on your desktop a squahfs file out of /cow, hence your diff, 
then put this file under /casper on the cd and you should be done.

 Seems like the way I was looking for! :-)
 If you need any help in testing this is real ok for me.

Yes, some targets of snapshots needs tests.

 Hello,

 What is the best way to save parameters from a GUI to the final ISO file?
 For example, firefox defaults to saving downloads to the desktop. I'd like
 to change it to Ask where to save files and have that setting saved in
 the final ISO file. I'd also like to have my custom firefox bookmarks in
 the final ISO file.
Look in the Debian Wiki here: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive/FAQ this
is the FAQ of the Debian Live project.

I just added the How to customize the KDE/GNOME...look?
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive/FAQ#head-7d03f9e08f54289930ba9f9ce2166488542988ab

Big thanks to him, if he wants to add something here...

 I don't know of any smarter way (suggestions welcome) but to:
 
   * chroot into the image (--hook bash),
   * launch firefox on your local display,
   * exit the chroot.
 
 save the ~/.firefox directory for future use, so you could include it
 with --include-chroot.

Or else just include one or two modified files in /etc/iceweasel/profile (e.g. 
bookmarks.html, prefs.js).

 It is not yet user friendly, I know, but it will became easier and easier in 
 the future to do that.

The best way is to add your modification to /etc/skel, but the easiest is 
probably launching your cd, customize it, then use the snapshot feature to 
build a squashfs out of /cow, then remaster oputting this squash on /casper 
dir on the iso.

One could try with Xnest

Inside chroot

export DISPLAY=localhost:1

Outside

Xnest -ac :1
