In that case, this is correct behaviour from os-prober. It's supposed
to return the thing you can boot. In this case, the Windows boot loader
is on sda2, so it returned that.
Ubiquity is going to need to change to track down the actual Windows
root filesystem associated with a boot partition (somewhat like the way
linux-boot-prober tracks down more information for Linux boot
partitions). However, I'm going to bump this to P-series, as I think
this is going to be too invasive for Oneiric, although I realise it's a
problem.
