The problem of creating a human interface for writing images to a USB stick is so technically straightforward that solutions have become common.
There does not seem to be consensus among the distributions yet. Ubuntu even has two. [1] [2] People who have specialised in distributions won't have noticed the alternate tools used by other distributions. Distributions have tended to be the focal point for such tools, but unetbootin is not distribution focused. unetbootin might offer another possibility ... get the Fedora Sugar combination listed there as an option. Use unetbootin project as leverage. It apparently has Windows and Mac OS X support.
