Thanks for working on this and the detailed analysis Gordon! The correct upstream branch for ubiquity is located here:

https://code.launchpad.net/ubiquity/

But there is no need to create a new merge proposal as I've already manually merged your changes and uploaded a new version of ubiquity to the archive. It should make the RC images! Thanks again.

Hi! quick question, is this likely to be backported back to Focal?

Or will go from Impish forward?
Thanks
