I guess this dialog is annoying only for the testers of partman not for
the users.  It contains helpfull information (acording to some
installation reports).  If the backing up from the main menu returns to
autopartitioning then there has to be a separate menu-item in order to
exit partman without making any changes to the disks.

So how about returning this dialog (it was removed in version 56 of
partman), rewording it and closing the bug?
