Anyway, there's sufficient duplicative effort between then openSUSE and Fedora 
installers when it comes to ninja partitioning I'm not really understanding why 
they don't share an upstream project. And why they prevent their users from 
leveraging these capabilities to create storage outside of an OS install 
context, and for making modifications to existing storage. They aren't as 
pretty as gparted, but do a lot more. It's a lot of wheels being reinvented.

For one thing, openSUSE allowed me to restrict an LV to one PV. Anaconda tried to take the total remaining disk space across both the SSD and mag HD and lump it into one LV. I searched for a while within anaconda, and the option to do just that could not be found. If I can't find it, I don't expect "normal" users to look beyond a glance, and say it's broken off the bat.
