This isn't new, LVM-based installs have been showing this way for a while:

The names are built this way AFAIK:

 <name of the machine>-<name of the LVM LV>

Now, this gets transliterated to:
 <name of the machine>--<name of the LVM LV>

... because of how devmapper works, it "escapes" dashed with a double dash like that.

AFAICS, the naming is otherwise consistent. 'ubuntu' is the name of the machine, and "vg-root" is the effective name of the LV; and both of these are concatenated together with -- (as transliterated by devmapper).

Do we want to fix this to make it prettier? I've updated the bug title accordingly, it's question that we need to answer as a team (Foundations) being responsible in general for the installer, etc.
