I'd be happy to drop it to a recommends; it wasn't my change originally.

I don't know that that necessarily fixes this bug, though; it's entirely
possible for somebody to have some other operating systems on other
partitions that they want to boot, and also a setup like Kees' with LVM
chroots that shouldn't be offered for separate boot. I tend to agree
that a blacklist would be a reasonable way to go about this. Would you
like me to look at implementing this?
