There is absolutely no basis to call partman "a _really_ crappy partitioner" and that that fact allone makes the whole installer "suck". We get as many compliments for partman as comments that it could be easier to use. > Weird, I am quite sure (since I was a little bit shocked about it) I > have heard this conversation about C++ support, while in Extremadura in > January, and was between you and Sven.

Sure, creation was requested, but the request to create the udebs was done by Sven without the agreement from the rest of the d-i team and even while he knew that people were in general opposed to the idea. It was never acted on because the request had no support and the resulting udebs would never have been accepted in the installer.
