And of course, sometimes this fails even when you're root, and other
times the disk's partition hasn't been read by the kernel anyway.
IOW it's a nice feature but it doesn't justify preventing the user from
running gparted as non-root.

No, you don't necessarily need to reboot: you can just unplug the flash
disk and replug it.
