FWIW, I've had a lot of issues in general with text anaconda for a while
now. If you snoop around the code, you find that the text side doesn't
seem like much of a drive for upstream anaconda anymore.

And you're right, LVM support in text mode is spotty at best. AFAIK,
however, you should be fine to just use some of the standard
command-line utils by switching over to console mode (was the console
F3?) but I've never personally done it. Also, if you knew exactly what
you wanted before hand you could probably make a kickstart file to take
care of that as well.
