Your request is no doubt completely valid, as is the one to extend zipl 
(#486526). However, you should be aware that the main challenge for the 
Debian s390 port is the current total lack of involvement from the 
s390-using community.

Effectively this probably means that unless you or someone else can 
motivate people who have an interest, the skills and access to hardware 
needed to implement the needed changes, it is very unlikely that any 
progress will be made. Therefore I'm tagging this bug report 'help'.

The Debian Installer team will of course be more than happy to help those 
people to get started and find their way in the D-I components and build 
system.

Cheers,
FJP
