It does allow you to change the sizes of partitions which are not in

The heuristic of the vfstab being 'in use' could be improved upon
however, which I believe is Daniel's main concern. The idea is that
entries in /etc/vfstab are possibly in use, and designed to help users
not step on filesystems that may not be mounted at that time, but could
potentially be something they want to keep.
In this special case it wasn't even a filesystem, but the swap device. You
won't loose any vital data from an inactive swap device (ok, in theory you
could loose a crash dump if you shrink swap).
