Absolutely. I believe he has some additions for the SxS as well.

On older versions (eg Woody) even without putting the installer in expert mode one could stop this (and the install manual explained how). With Etch, the installer just pushed ahead regardless of what I tried to do to stop it. Fortunately, since quik does not work with ext3 file systems, it aborted.
I consider this a bug. Perhaps I should file one then ? What's the best way to do this;
reportbug ? Rick perhaps you can chime in here ...
