Why do you need a button in the installer? Why is ctrl-alt-f2 to get
to a shell insufficient?

And then once you're done with CLI tools doing whatever you need to
do, you return to the installer with ctrl-alt-f1 or f6 (live vs
netinstall/dvd) and then click the "Reload storage configuration from
disk" button (the one that looks like a web browser reload icon,
circle arrow, to the right of the + and - mountpoint buttons). Why is
this insufficient?

I don't know what custom function you're referring to that's in F19,
but not F18 or F20.
