It surprised me there was no graphical installer.
At present date, g-i on PPC is still far from being in a good
enough shape to be used as any sort of "official" installer.
What needs to be done is rebuilding cairo and gtk against new dfb
1.0.1 in experimental and produce a PPC miniiso like Jeremy did for
i386, to see how the new version of our windowing system behaves on
PPCs.
I wonder if a call for testing should be posted on debian-powerpc ?

Yes! Please do. I can test on a variety of PowerPC Mac hardware.
I'm sure there are others as well.
