So I ran Ubuntu `disks`. When I click my swap partition, Disks shows some useful info about the partition (which I can copy, yay, but only field-by-field, boo!). But the panel doesn't show the device UUID. It should. As a poor workaround, if I choose gears icon > Edit partition, the dialog has a Type drop-down with "Linux Swap (0657fblah-blah-blah)" in it. But I can't copy that, so I have to retype it, which is silly on a computer. The advanced workaround is to root around in /dev/disk/by-ThisAndThat.
