After two or three version upgrades' worth of experience, there's really no good reason to not know in advance enough about partitioning to not plan and provide in advance of starting an installation what partitioning you should want,
Not sure I agree, some people might prefer to not have to know anything about partition tables. How large is the number of people who have partitioned their disk (how and by what means is irrelevant here) and want to keep it that way? I for one always have at least one large data partition which is distro and version independent and which I don't want monkeyed with (I do have a backup but not the time to restore 150+GB needlessly). I recomment the same partitioning scheme to everyone else. Or is it intentional that an installation onto an already partitioned disk requires drilling down 3+ levels into expert mode? I never thought of myself as an expert here.
