I don't think we actually have the technical capability to ship it in

It currently has to run as root, which is not acceptable, so would
require some work to split out privileged operations into a separate
backend process and use polkit for authentication. I think it would make
more sense to focus on improving Disks to do what you need rather than
rewriting GParted.
As far as I can tell, it's already using polkit. It asks for
authentication before running. On the live image, the user doesn't have
a password, so you might not see the dialog. (There was a bug with that
previously.)
