One of the really cool things with the openSUSE Installer is it lets you
configure btrfs and snapper right from the installer. This results in two
things:

1. Every time you install something using `zypper` it automatically takes a
pre/post snapshot
2. You can boot into a snapshot right from grub and restore it

This is a pretty powerful feature.

https://github.com/david-cortes/snapper-in-debian-guide is a guide on how
to do this with Debian. Once it's setup, it'll automatically take pre/post
snapshots when you run `apt` and you can boot them from grub. It's great.

I am wondering if the Debian developers would consider adding this into the
Debian installer so it's easier to configure/setup/enable.

I really feel this is a huge value-add ability and I think it would benefit
the Debian user-base to have this available in the installer.
