Do any of you see reasons for not making this change, and dropping the
alternate CDs? Are there shortcomings to the proposed fallback solutions
that we haven't identified here?

Purely from a user/tester perspective a current reason to not remove
in beta1 is currently for many or most users the live image is
completely unusable. No live session or install is possible due to
total video degradation. (quite similar to the
lightdm/greeter/nvidia issue in 12.04 dev.<br>
The one exception seen here is when the hdd is devoid of any
Ubuntu/grub/lightdm installs, only then is any recent image viable.
That though is not a typical scenario for most.<br>
<br>
Maybe this is a well known issue & expected to be resolved, if
not then removing the alt. installer will prevent many from
installing the beta or thereabouts if not fixed in the near future.<br>
