Problem is, no one in a position to fix or even look into this issue
you have officially is going to do so if you don't file a bug.

Coming here (or any other mailing list) and providing the info you
have (which is EXCELLENT info, I might add) is no different than just
running outside and telling your neighbor about your RAID issues.

I understand your frustration, but really, no one here can fix the
installer.  The people who can find out about these things from bugs
filed in Launchpad.
