It should be fine already.
IIRC, dual-desktop live systems were done at Mandriva.

It will still factorize the drivers/basesystem testing.

But there will be issues at the install part:
- it will last longer, because it is basically a "cp" of the
uncompressed live system, the more DE and langs you put, the longer it
will take
- it will require much more disk space, since that kind of install
process without handling packages makes hard to unselect languages or
desktops
