The proposal here AIUI is just about what the default should be.

We have taken the view that the admin should not /need/ to specify
explicitly which software components to assemble together to get the
block devices to work.

That doesn't mean that the admin won't be enabled to specify exactly
what they want (and to keep all the pieces if it doesn't work).

Ian.
