I'm afraid we don't intend to fix this. Firstly, it would be a significantly slower and less convenient installation; we'd rather that people could install quickly and then upgrade after install (when they can use their computer for something else at the same time). Secondly, encouraging everyone to stick with the same CD gives us less opportunity to fix installer bugs! Thirdly, this would be quite a lot of additional complexity in the installer (because this couldn't be done by means of just copying the live filesystem; it would have to be a completely different installation structure) and we'd rather focus on doing a good job on the core work of installation.
