I'd like to break CD limit too but we should not forgot there are users
for which CD is top technology from dreams and we have a lot of these
users among some countries... For me personally CD is history, even 
DVD, same 1 GB flash drive. We can afford it. But some people can't 
and are our users thanks to the ability to get a cheap OS, that can
run on cheap HW and is still modern.

The question is - how many people will be affected? Or should we 
provide some fallback option - stripped down CD media size image? And
make the bigger one primary one?
