Evan and I just discussed this and we've updated the specification:
------------
If you choose an option (and, if there are multiple disks, a disk) that would
involve specifying a new size for a Windows partition, but that Windows
partition is not resizable because of errors, then instead of the resizing
chart the installer should show this text:
Windows needs fixing first
The Windows installation on this disk contains errors. It cannot be resized,
to make room for Ubuntu, until these errors are fixed.
If you continue, the computer will restart into the Windows disk
checker to fix the errors.
Once it has finished, restart into Ubuntu and start the installation
again.
In this case, the usual "Continue" button should instead say "Restart Into Disk
Checker".
