I have been working on this for a couple releases now, and starting with Utopic it's available as a task and metapackage. There are ISOs which I've built, and starting with Wily, the plan is to produce official Xubuntu release ISOs on Ubuntu infrastructure.
+The goal of this is not to create a lightweight version of Xubuntu, but more targetted towards advanced users to give them a base to work off of. See also Appendix A of the Xubuntu docs.

=== Does this have anything to do with Snappy, Ubuntu Core, or Convergence? ===
Nope, not a dang thing.

The current official method is to download the link:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD[mini.iso], install, and when prompted, install the 'Xubuntu minimal installation' task. If you’d prefer to wait until after the installer finishes to install the Xubuntu core task, you can simply type `sudo apt-get install xubuntu-core^` (don’t forget the caret!) and away it’ll go.
Of courses, if you won't have internet during installation, or don't want to mess with the mini.iso, tasks, and the Debian installer, you can install from the ISO I've produced on the downloads page.
