If you can't edit the script to do things DIFFERENTLY, it doesn't really help. For example if I want to change the code to not repartition the disk (as just came up on systemimager-discuss). If the partition code is some abstract call that reads a dynamic db, it will be more difficult or even impossible to change that. Having a user script exit (or a bunch of them) will not help this. Its pretty straight-forward to go in and remove all the fdisk stuff today.
