During upgrades it asks 'You chose not to install GRUB to any devices. [ ... ] Continue without installing GRUB?' and offers two options: Yes or No. Answering 'No' does nothing and brings you back to the same screen which forces you to answer 'Yes' and continue upgrading (and manually installing / updating GRUB in the MBR of your disks).
It would be nice if answering 'No' in that screen brings you to a screen to select which devices to install GRUB to and disable the question in later upgrades.
