A huge +1. This is just a no-brainer for end-users, having a

installing to a very small amount of space - there could be a simple
heuristic which uses a single / partition when there's, say, 6GB or less
space available.
The biggest problem has always been coming up with the right algorithm
to decide how much / gets vs how much /home gets. Come up with a good
one and throw it at the Anaconda folks to see what sticks.
