This is already the case by the nature of how usb-creator is designed.
To put it another way, because usb-creator searches for devices with the
storage.removable property set to true, it will never use the device the
live system is running off of.

I've confirmed this in my own tests, but if the disk the live filesystem
is running from is present in your tests, please reopen this bug report
and print the result of the following command (where
volume_uuid_D501_33B3 is the device in question):

dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.Hal
--type=method_call /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_D501_33B3
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.GetAllProperties

Thanks
