Firstly thank you for the great project.

My question may be outside the scope of disko, but I thought I would be able to update the configuration re-run the script and have it update certain aspects of the layout which aren't data destructive.

For example:

  • If I have an LVM volume group and I want to increase the size of one of its partitions I can't by changing the size attribute, or the size of swap
  • If I change the name of a partition it will create a new one and leave the previous one there (this for example will make a mountpoint conflict)
  • If i change the mountpoint similar appending behaviour

I can't achieve this without using destroy. It seems obvious that my desidered behaviour is not supported, but I still thought I should ask if I'm doing anything wrong.
