Actually none of the above. Please do it in the systemd unit itself with
ExecStartPre as this actually fixes the issues, whereas the internal
approach does not (at least in my tests) :)

I can help write this unit if you like?

In actual fact, this shut down script could be something that the
mgalive dracut module drops into /run/systemd/systemd. This would
prevent any poking at the installed file system and maybe allows for
easier hacking - i.e. no need to actually edit the squashfs filesystem
to tweak certain things.
