I would like to support NVIDIA Optimus laptops by installing Bumblebee if hybrid graphics are detected. Implementing doesn't look too difficult. We just need to detect for Optimus support on the machine and the correct nvidia driver should already be installed by the installer. Additionally, add a dialog message box to notify the user. I don't have access to a laptop with hybrid graphics so I can't test this.

I have used your installer and have an optimus laptop (ASUS X556U) I can help you test it. Also I noticed when trying out timeshift that the btrfs configuration is functional but not conventional. It doesn't have subvolumes correctly configured for the system to run things like timeshift and create snapshots out of the box, I'll try to see if I can modify the script.
