I'm going to make a sweeping assumption here that e2fsprogs belongs
among all the other filesystem specific stuff that gparted currently has
specified as:

Suggests: xfsprogs, reiserfsprogs, reiser4progs, jfsutils, ntfs-3g, dosfstools, 
mtools, yelp, kpartx, dmraid, dmsetup, gpart

(I could ofcourse be wrong in that gparted somehow has a special
relation to ext* filesystems, but from a very quick look at the code I
couldn't find anything that suggested that.)

Regards,
Andreas Henriksson

Pretty much, yea.
