Title:
  Remove default value for grub install

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When using the third option for installing Ubuntu ("Autre choix" in
  french), Ubiquity displays a screen with a control and a default value
  for the drive where to install grub. This control is ill located, at
  the bottom of the screen, and may easily be inadvertendly left
  unchanged by the user, even if the default value may lead to a
  undesirable result (installing on an external drive taken away before
  the installing PC has been reboot).

  Instead, the value should be set by the user, to make sure the choice
  is what he really wants to be done.

  It is even reasonable to install no grub when installing a
  distribution, so a unset value could be take as a decision by the user
  not to install grub.

  Anyway, confirmation of the to be install configuration should be
  asked for before launching the installation.
