Active flag can be selected also for an extended partition - and I'm aware that
some BIOSes can boot this way (generic code in MBR, extended partition set as
active and holding GRUB). However, this is not what we are committed to support
(see the wiki page at http://en.opensuse.org/Bootloader/Scenarios). What is
missing is the check box description explicitly stating which partition will be
activated (in your cases, the extended partition)
I don't think that the default installation should ask too many question -
OTOH, having an easy way to switch a bootloader profile (having "standalone
boot" by default, "chainloaded by another" as optional, maybe others).
If you want to contribute, I suggest you should have a look at
http://en.opensuse.org/Svn.opensuse.org and at the yast-devel@opensuse.org
mailing list. It's probably not about being complicated, but about handling
issues bothering larger audience.
Jozef, please, have a look at better description of the widgets.
