Here are some of the issues I spotted:
* <empty or unknown> should probably be renamed to Unallocated.
* creating a bfs partition should format it to bfs at the same time
(#15634)
* when creating a bfs partition Active partition flag is not set
(https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw) (#7930)
* it is not clear that "(Be File System)" in File system column means
type and not actual file system.
* creating a partition doesn't show "Active partition" checkbox
(https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw?t=493)
* Intel Partition Map disappeared after reboot and became GPT instead
(https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw?t=1055)
* creating Partition Map recovered previous partitions instead of
creating new layout (https://youtu.be/2jdmcLHU3Vw?t=1109)
* don't disable Format menu if a volume is mounted but can be unmounted
* Change parameters menu opens an error alert
