"If there is more space free in a partition that could be resized than
is available in unallocated space, then the unallocated-space option is
dropped."

I disagree with this logic. It should not be assumed that the user
always wants to install in the largest available space (whether that be
in a partition or unallocated).

This is the case for me. I have a 60GB WinXP partition (30GB free) and
20GB unallocated. This logic assumes that I want to install by resizing
the WinXP partition, but I just want to install in the unallocated space
(more than enough for the install).

The the option for installing in unallocated space should always be
offered when there is enough space, not just when the unallocated space
is the largest available.
