Bug Description

I have a partition that I want to remove. This partition has a filesystem in it. However, the UI doesn't allow me to directly delete the partition and I have to unformat it first, creating 2 unnecessary steps instead of 1.

What i Do:
1. select sda-part1
2. 'unformat'
3. 'remove'

However, I should be able to do:

1. select sda-part1
2. 'remove' without having to 'unformat'.

The delete icon on the right should also delete (remove) the partition instead of unformat.,
