Let's say 256 MB boot. Everything else really depends on usage. Should we not distinguish between server-centric (large /var, smaller /) and desktop-centric (no need for separate /var and /tmp, big /) usage? Plus, given that the default setup is LVM anyway, let's not allocate 100% of the space. That way, if the partitioning logic gets it wrong, the too-small partition can be grown without having to stick in another disk.
