Comments inline.  Code looks fine, just some comments on the wording.

The message was being munged and it was overly long, grabbing attention
from the drive lists.
* iw/raid_dialog_gui.py (__init__):  Reduce message length.  Introduce
some padding for the drive lists.  The gtk reference suggests to use
set_default_size instead of set_size_request

'similar sized drives' sounds too ambiguous for a user.  Do the drives have to be
exactly the same size or can they be equal or greater than the source drives?

I'd say:

"partitions which are restricted to that drive "

The first sentence says 'drives', so should we say 'drives' here?  Will it
ever be 'drive'?
