I will look into the OEM feature.  This sounds very good to use.
Oh, also  you may want start using nodm on your liveCD instead of lightDM.
It is something I tried to use and it works very well (so far).
You don't need to set up any sort of xinit or xservverc stuff.  You
simply log straight into the DE/WM.
No need to enter a password or login at all.
It is not safe for installed systems (of course) or mulituser systems. 
It is built for embeded OS, and smartphones where you need to boot to
the GUI.
