I think as mentioned in Question #246592 it would be really good to add
bcache to the system partitioning part of the installer.

On my desktop I have a small 60GB SSD and a large 2TB HDD

I have my fstab set up roughly like so:

    /dev/sda    SSD
        sda1    20GB    /
        sda2    32GB    {bcache cache device}
        sda3    8GB      {swap}

    /dev/sdb    HDD
        sdb1    4GB    /var
        sdb2    ~2TB  {bcache backing device}

   RAM
        tempfs           /tmp

   bcache
        bcache0    {sda2->sdb2}    /home


I feel it would be very useful if the installer could recognise bcache devices 
and offer to use them like other devices during install.

Extending from this, it would be great to be able to setup cache devices
and backing devices and then choose where to mount the resulting bcache
device.
