Yes, but the default used by Ubuntu is not a good way of doing things.
I have begun the conversation in the developers to see if we can try and
fix this.

Its more than holy war, its about stability and disaster recovery.  The
one partition fits all approach is very bad in these aspects.  That is
why I have begun the conversation in the developers to try and get it
fixed for Hardy.

I know my normal partitioning scheme will likely get labeled too extreme
in the end, if I can move the default used in installation to a more
robust system, I will feel completely victorious.
