It looks cool too, i think that it's a different GUI approach, our GUI it's 
for a user that almost don't know what's a partition.

we can cooperate in this, take a look to :
http://development.bluesock.net/wes/docs/libbslparted-en.pdf
Your gtk GUI only needs to generate a XML (gnome's libxml2 rocks)

If you like the idea, the code can be downloaded in 
http://www.development.bluesock.net/en/code.html, if you like it or think 
it's wothwhile you don't need to add a c++ wrapper, just use this or add the 
things you think it lacks. 
C++ wrapper maybe a little duplication of efforts, i think that cooperating we 
can go further. It's up to you, our code as the libparted code is GPL.
