Topic: Allowing copy partition based on used data

I know this may not be a GParted issue as opposed to an underlying 'parted' issue but GParted would really be much more usable if it allowed the user to copy a partition to another place based on the used data size and not the total size of the source parttition. If I have a parttion of xxx bytes size, of which only yyy bytes are being used, I should not need a destination of at least xxx bytes to copy the partition if yyy bytes are available in the destination area.

I have moved this to the GParted suggestions forum so please ignore this post here. I just do not see any way to delete this post so I am adding this reply.
