True enough, though it's still a bug. :-)

I'm still in sysinstall-avoidance mode after 2.1, but I hope to work
up the courage to approach it again soon.  Since it's going to be
around for the lifetime of 2.1.x, I wouldn't also mind a little help
if anyone feels like jumping in and helping me to improve the installation.

I think I've done this one more or less alone for long enough.. :-)
It's not just a question of shared workload either - monotheism in an
installation program is not always a good thing. :-)
