You said that you left the active flag checked, which means that you agreed to
set the active flag to a partition relevant for your linux system. You should
have set it unchecked, this would fulfill your first point of expected
behavior.
I hope you agree that typical unexperienced Linux user has at most one
additional operation system and there is a primary partition available. When
you have a different bootloader, you need to assure yourself that it won't be
broken by the configuration (or tell me how I can detect that the other
bootloader on the system is working and can chainload me, because it may as
easily be a non-working relic of some previous installation).
Sorry, in your scenario, YaST provides you options to make it behave as you
want to. What it does by default is best effort to make its installation of
openSUSE boot (and, in some scenarios, I agree that it fails; however, we -
Novell - cannot support all of these scenarios; if you provide patches, they
will be weocome).
