Topic: clone partitions (even when FS is unknown)

Hello gparted developers

Is it possible to skip filesystem checks? Like this we could perform a  "raw copy" of a partition from A to B without understanding the underlaying fileystem. We would lose the ability to shrink or grow a partition, but copying raw like we know from using dd if=/dev/A of=/dev/B should still be possible with the right destination partition size in place.

Take for example a closed luks partition, or clone a whole drive as it is - wouldn't it be great to copy those as well in gparted?
