Cool. :) Perhaps you can add the ability to force parted to use certain disk geometry, useful in our case (and I'm sure you'll be familiar with this :)) when recovery partitions--in particular, IBM's--need exact geometry offsets and the hd firmware reports this wrong, propagating the "wrong" geometry up into parted and thus written out to disk upon close.
I modified libparted/linux.c a bit to try and add this in _disk_probe_geometry, but it didn't really seem to make a difference, and I didn't have time to further investigate where else I'd need to tweak.
