Just like we had for the many request for some "non standard" keymaps which we had in the past, I'll make the same answer : adding more keymapsto the installer has a cost, in memory and complexity. We deliberately chose several years ago to not make things too complicated for users : for instance, for each language we usually offer one option, usually the most widespread one in the countries that use this language. The overall rationale is that users of less common keymaps will always have the opportunity to reconfigure console-setup on the installed system.
