Not as smooth as `disksetup' (presumably -- i've never been using it),
but you've got it more convenient, without vamping a disktab entry.
In -current, you could do:

	disklabel -Brw sdX auto
	disklabel -e sdX

If people find it useful (and there are no further objections than the
single one i've seen by now), i could also move this functionality
into -stable.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
