I completely 100% agree. Actually I don't see the need for a new sysinstall. It does what it needs to do. I have seen the later RH- and SUSE-Installer, but I don't want them. What's the use of a graphical installer?
One big problem with the current installer: The current keyboard interaction is quite mystifying to new users. I taught a FreeBSD class for a while where I watched every single person stumble just trying to figure out how to select choices in the installer menus. I don't think a graphical installer is necessarily the answer to this. Simply obeying long-established conventions for keyboard usage (ENTER selects the thing under the cursor, for instance, instead of having to TAB to the "OK" button first) would go a long ways.
