Not to bring out the paint early, but I have a suggestion, should the
concept of hog partitions be introduced (regardless of whether you stick
them in disklabel, diskpart, or yadisklabel3): make it possible to define
multiple variable-sized partitions, with percentile ratio to use from the
hog-space, ie.

/	64m
/var	128m
/usr	50%
/home	50%

That would yield more flexibility, at a (hopefully) low additional cost in
code.
