Is booting/installing from USB CDROM considered supported?

[Martin Nilsson]

I tried to install our CD/FDD-less servers from a CD-RW drive connected 
on the USB port, the bootloader complains about "not ufs" and wants me 
to enter a new boot device. This is 4.9-Release

On a late October current the system reboots.

I'll try with a fresh 5.2-BETA later today and see what happens with it. 
in the meantime I just want to ask:

Is booting the install CD over a USB connected CDROM supposed to be 
working?
