is /sbin/casper-getty always called? or when is it called?
black_13

Or as a "--hook" to make-live you could dpkg-divert /sbin/casper-getty
and place your own /sbin/casper-getty which does (pseduo shell code)

case $PORT in
tty[0-9])
       exec startx ;;
*)
       exec /sbin/casper-getty.real "$@" ;;
esac

The sed scripts  in the CASPERGETTY part of 25configure_init  try to
be so tight that they only rewrite the original debian /etc/inittab. I
can't vouch for the intent of the code outside the CASPERGETTY
block... however I think it is a bug if that code rewrites modified
versions of the original debian /etc/inittab. There may be come ubuntu
copat code in there too but I don't know about that.

In summary:
(1) I'd try to modify the /etc/inittab in the chroot first and report
bug 25configure_init  overwrites it.
(2) yes you have identified the right part of the code which rewrites
/etc/inittab patching this file will also do what you want.
