I agree. I already committed a change for this quite recently, although
we haven't yet uploaded it; it will be in rescue 1.21.

  * Make sure filesystem recovery tools are installed, as they're often
    useful in rescue mode: e2fsprogs-udeb, jfsutils-udeb,
    reiserfsprogs-udeb, xfsprogs-udeb, fdisk-utils, and parted-udeb
    (LP: #364135).

Thanks,
