I couldn't produce an anaconda patch if my life depended on it, you
know that. And bcl already knows how I feel about this ESP UI, and he
disagrees [1]. His view is the user using custom partitioning should
know what they are doing, even though reality proves this is
overwhelmingly false. Users don't know such things, don't want to know
such things, and no good reason/advantage is presented for them
knowing such things.

So I'm trying to convince you, because you're the one in this bug
producing a significant amount of consideration how to polish what I
think amounts to a turd. You can't polish this thing, it just has to
be ripped out of the UI on UEFI installations - no bootloader options
at all ever. Get rid of it. Nothing good has ever come from this
choice. Only frustration for all parties, including QA.
