Hello,

After some fun using curtin and trying to change the disk/partition layout I thought it'd be a good idea to send some wish list features.

High Priority:
The ability to set custom partition tables,sizes,filesystem types. 
 - chose between mbr/gpt/uefi
 - don't assume any filesystem size/types require users to provide root fs size and type
Swap should probably be a default partition created

Medium Prior
LVM support
Some ability to handle/manage existing partitions/lvms
  - i'd like to be able to re-install the OS but maintain my data so id like to inspect the existing partition/volumes and choose which partitions to format or reuse/mount

Low Prior
MD support

If I can think of some more I'll reply back, but so far these would be awesome additions.

Thanks,
Kyle
