[Bug 1325692] [NEW] Extend Volume Dialog could be smarter

 

Public bug reported:

I just made a 3gb test volume, and went to extend it. When the dialog
opens, the Size field isn't filled out yet. It would be really nice if
Size was pre-filled when the dialog was loaded with the current size,
and then they can modify that up to extend it.

I wondered if despite the name, you could use it to shrink a volume, and
was greeted with an error after the dialog reloaded. It seems like it
should be fairly easy to do some field level validation and not require
a reload on this dialog when they try to extend a volume to a number we
don't like.

Additionally, if we're only letting them change the size of the volume,
perhaps Name should be a read-only field and not marked required, rather
than looking editable but having a disabled mouse cursor when you hover
over it.
