Now that we don't have to reserve slices for it, making swap optional in the space calculation is fine. We don't place any lower limits on memory, and it's just virtual memory, after all. Besides which, we can infer that the system works well enough for the user's purposes without swap since the boot from the CD won't have used any swap.
