Hi David.  I'm very familiar with parted and friends because I use them
often, but I'm completely confused by why udisk should get involved with
those tasks when I (the user) can use the same tools directly.

What is the problem that udisk would be solving by supplying the same
functions?  Who whould be using udisk to do those tasks instead of
using the tools directly?  I ask as a udisk outsider, so a very short
answer would be more than sufficient :)

Thanks.
