Okay, please open a _new_ change proposal with what you want to happen: expanding the scope like you suggest feels like me getting tricked to work on your much bigger change that's not terribly well-defined or tested.
...Anaconda needs to *lose* a feature where it refuses VFAT for /boot [1], the various places which create partitions need to be modified to inject the right partition-type UUID instead of made-up one, and instead of creating two partitions with different fs types, create just one. None of this is rocket science.
Perhaps you'd like to push this feature. I'd happily retract my smaller proposal if you've got patches ready for anaconda, have tested this on all platforms, and have all the votes.
I'm adding some folks who made some recent Anaconda commits in CC. For reference, the mail I'm replying to is at [1], and my earlier proposal is at [2].
Would you be open to modifying Anaconda like this? I think the code changes would be fairly easy, and I would be happy to prepare a patch, but I don't want to do this if there's no chance of it being accepted.
