Hi Ken (and yast-devel audience in general).

We already implemented a first prototype of the new partitioner UI which
makes RAIDs partitionable by adapting dynamically the set of buttons at
the bottom of the table (to reflect only actions that apply to the
selected row).

But there are still too many buttons to fit nicely in 80x24. So we
prepared the following gist with (animated) images explaining the
current problems and some possible solutions. We need advise to move
forward.

I find the button row way too crowded and my first impulse was: why not
clean it up and go for the logical 'add/delete/edit' set?

If you think what you'd usually use this menu for: how often do you 'resize'
something, let alone 'move' a partition? Versus adding/deleting one.

Maybe 'delete all' could also deserve a separate button.

So I'd move towards variant 2 or 3.
