Agreed. The purpose of auto-partitioning is providing users with a simple, default way to setup partitions "without thinking". As, at any time, people are able to go back and play with the default partitioning, I think this is the best (or less worse) way to handle all possible cases. After all, there are probably as many possible partitioning strategies as there are users...:-) Anyway, reassigning the bug report to the package it belongs....and marking it the way I think the majority in D-I developers think it should be marked (as of now, I could make a -sadly bad- joke by saying that my opinion probably counts as "half of the opinions of D-I developers", the other half being Kibi...:-)
