Not at all.

An example could be something like this: a button which opens a shell with
fdisk or gparted or similar, wich then jumps back to anaconda when partitioning
is done, which then rereads the disk layout and let me enter the mountpoints
would suffice. I'm sure that's fewer lines of code than the custom function
which has been in F19.
