That is just a symptom of a core issue with comps, that the applications in 
non-desktop-environment groups are not conditional on the user's desktop 
environment in any way.

This affects much more than just GNOME Disks and the admin-tools group. 
Pretty much all comps groups except the KDE ones are filled with GNOME apps 
as mandatory or default, and the KDE equivalents as optional if even listed 
at all.

That is still a GTK application though. KDE Plasma users will want KDE 
Partition Manager instead.

IMHO, we need a proper solution for the general comps issue rather than that 
half-baked compromise that does not really improve the situation. KDE Plasma 
users should get KDE applications by default everywhere.
