Are you able to contribute towards >realising your wishes? I think this is the gist of the issue: Debian is a doocracy. Everyone is free to write a new installer and bring it into the Archive. Installing Debian from a Debian Live installation already uses a different installers, many people including myself are installing debian "manually" with debotstrap. So, I'll add to Mehmet what you already said: Thanks for your suggestions, now go ahead and build them.
