thank you for the feedback.
there are a few things to consider here: the first one is that the main failure scenario for something like a pi running for a long time (that I've seen) is the SD card failing (long time here means months to years depending of your usage pattern); the second thing is that I made this choice for the first iteration - there isn't any technical reason why you wouldn't be able to have a 2nd partition that you mount RW. to achieve this you could hack it directly into a image you would build or you can leverage the bootcode and/or usercode hooks in the config.

Ping me directly or comment on this thread if you want to give this a shot and you have trouble getting it to work.
