(Get the code!)
I completely agree with this suggestion and came here to report the same myself.
One further suggestion that I would have would be to reverse the "Format" checkbox and "Type" dropdown, so that the format checkbox came first. To my mind, the logical order of questions (after the mountpoint question) is "Do you want to format this partition?". If the user doesn't want to format the partition, you can't ask what to format it to. If the user does want to format it, it then makes sense to ask what to format it to.
While obvious to some, others may not realise why they cannot deselect format if they happen to choose a different filesystem.
