The picture below includes all the UI changes that were made:

The portable media device which is made bootable using the MediaWriter does not support persistent storage if UEFI is enabled on the target computer or if the target computer is a Mac.
To enable support for those systems the overlay switch has to be added in a couple more files which are inside of .img files.
To be specific the efiboot.img is a FAT file system and the macboot.img is an HFS+ file system. On those two file systems the boot.cfg files need to be modified in-place. To do that the corresponding file system needs to be told the new size of that file.
