Sector size can vary from the traditional 512 bytes per sector. Hence
sectors per MiB can be different on different hard disks. I believe the
same can be sa

Can't sectors per MiB be different on different harddisks?
But the LBA size "sectors?" may be the right option for below MiB alligning.

I thought there was already a bug about allowing size entry in units
other than MiB, but I can't seem to find it now. Allowing entry in
sectors sounds like it would fix this.

When I had the problem I finally had to turn to CLI-parted to get the
proper numbers. Nothing a graphical tool user may like to do, but I
could work around the problem that way.
Fortunately, I was using the MiB allignment on all newer disks, so they
should have ended up to have the same size as I
When GParted creates partitions, it uses the size in MiB as a guideline.
The size on disk can vary depending upon the setting of the "Align to"
drop down box.

Thanks for the workaround! Having to look into Move/Resize before creating new
partitions is still strange, though.
I would expect the required unit numbers are available, at least in the
detailed properties of partitions.

GParted displays partition sizes using units that try to keep the digits
before the decimal place to three or less.
When the Move/Resize or the Copy dialog box is first shown, the current
size is shown in mebibytes in the "New size (MiB)" field.
