this was a question actually.

Yes, this is not a regression but user observable bug. The floppy
is not available in Windows UEFI guests and it is not that easy
to get VirtIO drivers in this case installed especially for root
disk.
Isn't a CD enough for everything except Windows XP (EOLed) and 2003 (not
supporting UEFI anyway)?

The problem comes from unattended installation. As far as we
have tried unattended answers file should come on USB flash
or on floppy.

In the other case the ISO with Windows distro should be
modified. This option we can not afford as we do not control
ISO's on the client side :(
