I've arranged for this message to at least only be displayed if the
installer is waiting for user actions (which was always the intent).
mpt suggested hiding the contents of the dark progress section if
copying files completes before the user has finished answering all the
questions, which would avoid this problem while also avoiding the
alternative problem that the user doesn't realise they're supposed to do
something because there's still a progress bar on the screen. I'm
experimenting with this now.

Title:
"Ready when you are" message is misleading and incorrect
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
About half-way in the installation process, Ubiquity spawns this
message: "Ready when you are". This is incorrect and misleading,
because Ubiquity then still needs to install a lot of software (e.g.
Grub).
The current message could lead inexperienced people to abort the
installation prematurely. Please eradicate it entirely, or change it
to something like: "Installation is well under way".
