Wow! That's well hidden!

I've only had a cursory look at ceph-deploy's underlying code -- is this a
feature missing from there, or is there a reason it's left out of the "osd
prepare" phase?

It would be good to either document this on the ceph-deploy quickstart page
or incorporate it into ceph-deploy. I can confirm sgdisk is in the path on
login.
