I'm very sorry for this - full recovery is probably not possible,
although since formatting doesn't typically erase the entire disk (but
just writes new metadata to a few places in it) you may be able to
recover some data from the raw disk image. Anyway, this should be fixed
for the Edgy beta:

ubiquity (1.1.25) edgy; urgency=high

  * Not knowing the filesystem type for a partition apparently doesn't
    necessarily mean that it's unformatted, so don't format partitions
    without a detected filesystem type (closes: Malone #61732).

** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Released
