I suggest that this bug (#90894) should be marked with
priority "high" rather than "normal" for the following reasons:
Any ext2/ext3 filesystems created during the installation procedure
of recent RedHat/Fedora Linux versions, which use the e2fsprogs for
this task, cannot be resized, moved or copied anymore using parted.
In other words: Parted can basically not be appplied to those
partitions/filesystems anymore at all. Unfortunately, the utilities
fdisk, resize2fs, etc. are not really alternatives (i.e. inconvenient
to use) when you have to resize and move partitions and filesystems
on a densely packed hard drive.
