Well, as far as I understand, somebody wanted to have a "desktop" choice in the installer but not ask any further questions. If not asking any further questions is really important, then yes, it should install them all.

Reporting it again is just a last resort in case he or she forgets about it and Lenny's installer wouldnot be fixed either. Usually grave bugs like this are fixed before anyway, DDs usually don't like to wait for the last possible moment.
