if you use it, filesystems also have label functionalities, which iinm are

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of UUIDs either so I tend to use labels instead.
I always partition and format using command-line tools in the Rescue
System. If you do that, you can add the labels yourself. For example:
+
# mkfs.ext4 -m 1 -L mgaroot /dev/sda1
# mkswap -L swap /dev/sda2
# mkfs.ext4 -m 0 -L home /dev/sda3

The -m parameters above specifies the percentage reserved for the superuser.
+
the -L parameters are the filesystem labels. After that, reboot to the installer
and choose Custom Partitioning, assign your pre-existing partitions and be
sure _untick_ the [ ] Format boxes then continue installing as usual.
+
After the installation, you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst replacing each
UUID=<blahblahblah> with LABEL=<label>. For example:

root=LABEL=mgaroot (and) resume=LABEL=swap
+
Similarly in /etc/fstab, you can have entries like:

LABEL=mgaroot  /     ext4  relatime  1 1
LABEL=swap     swap  swap  defaults  0 0

So the 'nickname' feature you request is available with a little pre-install
+preparation and post-install config file editing.

Hope this helps -- RJ
