Finding the install option on the LiveCD is very obscure at present, and I agree it is a problem. It's a consequence of the loss of icons on the desktop in Gnome 3. If there was ever a valid reason for the installer being located on the desktop in the first place, and I believe there was, then some interim means of returning near equivalent discoverability is a good idea.

The suggested button solution seems low risk, and significantly reduces the present obscurity problem.

Longer term, I think I prefer clear text options in Syslinux/GRUB menus to choose either booting a Live environment, or executing the installer.
