That´s exactly the point: making it better and trouble free for non-experienced users. This is about making ubuntu easy to use and accepted by them.
If we start thinking that the user should know what is a disk, what a partition and what to select, going by the same logic should we drop the guided methods in the installer too? You should know how to partition, right? Why not leave only manual partitioning option.
Instead of making it easier for the non-experienced users you are worried about "this may lead to problems in non-standard environments"??? Excuse me, but ANYONE able to create non-standard environment is probably able to use any ubuntu cd, super grub, system rescue cd, or what ever and get the system online.
Besides, why not hide advanced options under a button "Advanced Options for Advanced Users". Lets worry about the non-experienced users first, the others will find their way.
And the fact that doing the upgrade in a wubi install makes grub2 install to your MBR or/and partitions has at least some elements of a bug, right? You don´t use grub2 in wubi. Everything the upgrade process does should be within the root.disk file, never on your disk MBR or partitions.
