I also don't think that ext2 should be offered in the installer, as there have been periodic stability problems with it, and new users accustomed to Linux may pick it out of habit and get bitten.
I advocate the opposite view: if it doesn't get exposition, it won't be fixed.
P.S. I pretty much never use sysinstall anymore, preferring to set up things as gjournal and geli using Fixit mode, then just extract the tarballs into the new filesystems. Having a good standalone partitioning tool would be nice though, as doing all the math by hand can be tedious. Any chance that the module that handles that could be set up so it's possible to use it independently?
I'll write the backend, if anyone wants to do the frontend, he's welcome to it.
