Normally (g)parted actually updates the kernel in memory partition table
to keep it in sync with the on disk partition table. This requires root
access -- simply having write access to the block device is not enough.
I suppose you could allow a non root user to update the on disk
partition table, but then you will get told that updating the kernel
failed and you need to reboot for the changes to take effect.
