We deliberately don't do this, even though we're aware that it's
technically possible and appears to be kind of neat.  The reason is that
it's possible there might be something wrong with the boot loader (or
some other piece of software) such that the system won't boot.  If this
is the case, then it's much better to find this out immediately after
installation than at some indeterminate future time when you have lots
of work saved on the computer that you don't want to lose.

A minute or two spent rebooting is a small price to pay for the
assurance that everything is functioning correctly after installation.
