Hello, I got httpfs sort of working with debian-live.
I made some patches to the live script to allow new options for mounting through httpfs and curlftpfs. Initially these would just panic after live-bottom scripts were executed. However, modifying the init in initramfs to use chroot instead of run-init makes the script work. Thanks to all who helped with tips and advice on #debian-live I can now boot systems with <512MB of ram from the network. The attached tarball contains a directory that should be copied over your debian-live config directory. It contains a patch for the live scripts, another one that enables messages on the screen so that you know what is going on, and a patch to init. There is a package list to install fuse, a hook to pull in the relevant files into ramdisk, and a hook to apply the patches. If you want httpfs run make in chroot_local-includes/bin. You need libfuse headers for that. Thanks Michal
