OK, so for RAID and LVM the user specifies the sizes the
resulting partitions resp. logical volumes and YaST the creates a
RAID resp. volume group big enough for all of them.

That is one thing I do not like about the expert
partitioner. After creating a RAID I must select the RAID and
then create the file system. I would prefer if the file system
selection comes immediately (or this role selection).
