Per Brett Glass's mail to -current on 25 Sept 2011, the partition creation dialog should do some math and show what the largest possible value for the size is, and pre-fill that (probably mentioning that it has done so).

 Hi Nathan,
 
 Sorry for the big pile of PRs all at once -- I just wanted to get 
 mentioned issues off mailing lists and into a more noticable place.
 
 The main desire here was with respect to having the 'size' field 
 pre-filled (as opposed to using the max size if the field is left blank).
 Alas, I don't have a machine handy on which to test right now and confirm, 
 but I'm pretty sure that I never saw the 'size' field get pre-filled.  Do 
 you believe that it should be?  I can test again, later.
 
 Thanks again for all the tireless work.
 
 -Ben

 Thanks for the reports -- it makes things much easier to keep track of. 
 The size field should definitely be pre-filled, and is at least on my 
 machine.
