Debian Live really doesn't allow for this (if it does please correct me). My other constraint is that I do not want to have any distros customized file hierarchy, or any distro's package system.
I think you can accomplish this with Fedora's revisor app. Basically it gives you a choice of everything in the Repos to put a checkmark next to, and once you have selected what you want it double checks the dependencies and puts that stuff on the liveCD. You could make it as heavy or light as you want. I am fairly sure that you can put anaconda on there to install from the liveCD as well.
