Which is exactly what I would have done, had I known about that
limitation beforehand.  I'm not too worried though.  It seems to be
working, and I'd truly expect a program high-class enough to be "GNU"
to stop before it did anything it wasn't capable of doing.

And if it does fail, parted also recovers partitions!
