I don't doubt. But the need for full relocation support is _MUCH_ higher.

It is not necessary for libparted to depend strongly on libntfs but
the same way as on libreiserfs.
Any plan on support ntfs resize in the new debian installer?
Any update or plan on gtk frontends to d-i and an integration with
bootsplash (bootsplash packages are now on debian mentors repos)?
