Overall it looks like a definite improvement.

I think that's rather strange. So you have to set slider to 0 > apply > 
then "start over". How about you can right click partitions in the overview 
above and "delete partition" is one of the context menu options.

Another thing, I think one of the most common tasks done with the partitioner 
on already installed systems is setting a mount point for existing 
partitions. Therefore I don't think it's a good idea to have the 
mount-point-thingy in the "manual partitioning" section. Maybe "set mount 
point" could be an option in the above suggested context menu. 

Also I think it might be nice if the partitioner could automagically create 
folders if you enter a mount point which doesn't exist.
