@Michael Hudson-Doyle,
I am willing to help you (to respond as soon as possible to requests for
testing in my computers). But I am also ready to release tools that can
identify 20.04 and modify the label accordingly.

Title:
The 'new' persistent live method starting in 19.10 no longer works
Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I am iso-testing Focal Fossa and I am creating and maintaining tools
to create live and persistent live USB drives. Lubuntu Focal daily
live dated 2020-02-12 works. But the current version of Lubuntu Focal
dated 2020-02-16 (zsynced approx. one hour ago) does not work when
using exactly the same method using mkusb-plug, that edits the iso
file to replace 'quiet splash' with 'persistent ' /12 characters/ and
creating an ext partition behind it.
I noticed that the version of casper has changed from 1.438build1
(when it worked) to 1.439 so I suspect that this has caused the
failure.
