You and Josef are sending mixed messages here: "btrfs is fine, but just
not ready to be the default" and "don't make it the default, but we
still need users to install it so it can get better, so don't take away
the option". I don't think that is reasonable - either it is ready to be
widely used, ie the default, or it isn't in which case it shouldn't
appear in the UI.

I'm pretty firmly against filesystem choice in the workstation
installer.
