This may help, Daniel dropped a hint about using ext formatted files as persistent storage in the 2.0 documentation and for me it has worked like a charm. I can create an image file to use with persistence on anything but NTFS so the 4G limitation applies but then still browse to live image where on the USB device root still has RW. I hope this is helpful. It has allowed me to continue to use the USB storage in Windows and still access and use the same storage when booted into Debian Live from the same device. A feature I hope continues with the 3.0 evolution...
