As for the questions about who to contact to get the ball rolling on this
bug, I think Tollef Fog Heen might be our man. I don't know much about the
heirarchy of developers in Ubuntu, but Tollef is subscribed to this
bug<https://bugs.launchpad.net/%7Etfheen>,
and he is also listed as one of the authors on the manpage for
casper<http://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive/casper-manpage>.
The other authors are Matt Zimmerman <mdz AT canonical DOT com>, and Marco
Amadori <marco.amadori AT gmail DOT com>.

Hopefully one of these guys can take ownership of this bug and get
persistent back on track.
