Bug Description

Binary package hint: tasksel

It would be nice to be able to preseed tasksel/first to something like "standard,ubuntu-desktop" as well as "standard, ubuntu-desktop". Currently only the latter syntax is accepted, and it causes a great deal of confusion when the former mysteriously doesn't work. debconf itself is OK with comma-separation in multiselect questions, so there's no need for tasksel to strictly require comma-space.
