Random plans and ideas for 1.1 and beyond: * The whole lvm/dm debacle. * The interface between core and the file systems needs some more thought. Ideally we'd be free to use either external helper apps (like we do now) or libraries to achieve the same things. Libraries in this case being libntfs-3g and libext2fs. There's one for reiserfs too, iirc. Using libraries we'd hopefully be able to get meaningful progress status reporting while resizing, checking and so on. * Information about file system on a separate tab in the properties, unique to the file system in use. * Check if no of sectors fits in an unsigned 32 bit int for msdos partition tables. * The KPart works but has problems: The context menus don't show up, the status bar is missing, maybe more. * save msdos mbr? * let the user specify extern command locations and options in the settings * write a setup-kcm in the style of k3b's so that the user can set the r/w permissions of the disks there; also use kauth to update the partition table in the kernel. that should cover all cases where we actually need root privileges now. (not for 1.1) * offer a) no alignment of partition boundaries at all or b) legacy cylinder alignment or c) sector based alignment (the name is misleading, though) Bugs: * copy&paste seems broken wrt alignment when copying from cylinder aligned to sector aligned drives (maybe even more than that)
