The text-mode code and the graphical code in Anaconda are doubled. It is as if there are two Anaconda-s -- one for text-mode and another graphical. In PGI the situation is the same. However in YaST there is very litle code doubling I think. Moreover YaST is not only an installer but also a full-featured configurator (it does for SuSE all that debconf can do for Debian and more). I don't know the principles of YaST so I can not say whether we can add to debconf the features that YaST has.
