Why not add a selection to the installer, something like this:Partition scheme ---------------- [ ] all in one + swap Create one partition containing all subtrees plus one swap partition.

I like it. This, or something very similar, seems to me like the best way to go.
I am not a professional sysadmin, but have been using FreeBSD since 2.2.6. FWIW, I prefer the multi-partition approach for all the reasons already mentioned.
