However, I find its location in the CVS tree quite strange. Why isn't
it under tools? Seems a pretty minor problem but this needs to be
fixed, imho.

Will we completely drop out fdisks and partitioner or keep it as an
"expert" option?

I'm OK with this. The new countrychooser is able to work concurrently
with the "old" languagechooser anyway.

I'll post a summary about the design of both and the possible drawbacks

  - BIDI support
       Adding support for languages needing BiDirectional support
       in newt, which will probably allow Arabic translations to
       be usable (and a possible Hebrew translation, I think)

  - i18n 
       More languages : 24 are currently over 50% in HEAD. Catalan may
       come if I piss off Jordi Mallach enough. Turkish was supposed
       to climb but does not. Other are really anecdotical.
