Most of these should probably be addressed by an additional section in
the installation guide which is integrated into the guide as a whole.
http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/d-i/trunk/manual/
and https://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals#install should help you out;
I'd also contact debian-boot@lists.debian.org with a general plan of
action.
