There are really two issues here.  One is an implementation problem in that
ubuntu-image currently only supports a single volume (a.k.a. image) entry per
gadget.yaml.  LP: #1641727 tracks this.

Second, as you point out, the gadget.yaml specification only defines a
partitioning schema of mbr or gpt, so yes, the spec would need to add support
for something like a 'raw' schema.  I don't believe we have a tracking bug
(either in u-i or snappy) for this.
