OK, Aurelien. I shall expect the possibility of upgrading with the 
debian-installer because I migrate from Mandriva that have an installer 
that do that still many years ago. So I had not surprising to do that.
I understand that your choice is to not permit upgrading with d-i.
Consequence: a clear dialog of d-i must notify the user and d-i must prevent 
the upgrading.

Thanks.
