Our d-i is different / forked to the one from debian, and we don't merge
all the changes they do. And vice versa. We do cherrypick things from
time to time, which are useful.

I'm not convinced the proposed change is universally useful. And we do
not want the size to grow arbitrarily large.

Setting to won't fix.
