Comment 13 for bug 690926

There are a number of more advanced users that understand that if they want to install Ubuntu and try it side by side with another install, that they do not want it to take over the boot loader. While they likely have at least some level of familiarity with the command line, that does not mean that they could or would discover that they could run ubiquity -b to get the desired results.

At the end of the day, this WAS a feature so the burden of proof should be on the side arguing to remove it ( or make it significantly more difficult to discover/use ). The feature was put in before for good reason, so the question is, has anything changed to justify removing it? Even if there was, the removal of features should be documented in the changelog for ubiquity, as well as the release notes for Ubuntu.

Furthermore, there already exists a drop down list to choose the location to install grub to ( that is only shown on the manual partitioning / advanced installation screen anyhow ); adding one more entry for NOWHERE would not add one bit of additional confusion to the user interface.
