If you're not against building your own code, you can apply a small
patch that should enable it. When I developed the initial resize call,
it actually allowed root resize, but I wasn't confident that it made
sense to put it in the final product because root disks are managed by
service offerings, and it allows you to violate that service offering.
I imagine a global config option would need to be added to explicitly
turn it on.
Here's a 4.2 version of the patch:
