On the point of datasets, I'm open to incorporating a fine grained
dataset on OSGeo-Live, if it is going to be valuable to a number of
projects, and is suitably compact to fit on the OSGeo-Live DVD.

That's the communities choice.

My stance is simply that most people work with fine scale data, not broad scale data, and so have tailored my tutorials to demonstrate program use with what most people use.

As for size, if people did not want to include the data into the DVD, albeit the individual 5x5 kilometre sets only occupy between 19 - 69 MB, you can be easily downloaded a ZIP in less than 5 minutes.
