We decided not to do any major changes to Ubiquity for 12.04, instead 
focusing on stability and bug fixes.

Full disk encryption, LVM support and RAID are I think the most 
requested new features for Ubiquity's partitioner and I'm sure we'll get 
there soon though an LTS is usually a bad time for that kind of change 
to a critical part of the install process.
