Thanks!

I'm surprised we have to go through this:

+        if re.match( r'^[0-9A-F]{8}(-[0-9A-F]{4}){3}-[0-9A-F]{12}$', partition_type):


... to check if the device to be upgraded has a GPT.

Can't we instead use the "PartitionTableScheme" property of the
parent device? This would seem more straightforward to me:

Cheers,
