I can confirm this with ubiquity 2.6.5

To reproduce in a VM
1. Install Natty once using full device space
2. Reboot
3. Install it a second time and choose 'install alongside'

The partition manager displays 2 devices sda1 and sda2
But a dump of the partition table shows that sda2 is an extended partition. 
After proceeding, the dump shows that the partition manager actually resized 
sda1 and created sda6 and sda7.

Setting to medium because it is sensible and misleading information.
