Apple needs to add a feature to "Disk Utility". This should be easy for them to implement.
Presently OS X users can not dynamically re-size disk partitions ( and add other partitions ) with Apple's Disk Utility. Even an extremely simple implementation of this concept would be of great assistance.
For instance, one that simply took a user-specified amount of empty disk space, at the end of the last partition, and dynamically converted that into a new partition unto itself.
This should be simple for Apple to provide us and would aleveiate the problem of archiving an entire disk, simply for the purpose of repartitioning it.
I hope to see this in PANTHER.
