maybe two releases ago, it was not allowed mainly because it's more complicated making sure the bootloader always has LVM support. While GRUB2 does have LVM support, it won't work for some kinds of LVM raid, and also extlinux doesn't support it.

Sounds about right. I believe assuring GRUB2 installed with LVM support is not that difficult, but GRUB2's LVM support is very limited, I believe only simple volume or simple mirroring. Apparently installer developer want to make sure the installer does not produce an unbootable system.

IMHO, installer should have an "expert" mode where questionable stuff won't stop installation, even when it potentially cause unbootable system (we can just try again). This especially true for kickstart installation.
