ext3 isn't supported properly

Documentation claims "parted" can resize ext3.

The only way I succeeded in resizing ext3:
1) create ext2
2) tune2fs -j /dev/xxx
3) now I can resize ext3 with "parted"

When I cannot resize ext3 (it says: "No Implementation: This ext2 filesystem 
has a rather strange layout!  Parted can't resize this (yet)."
1) after checking this newly created ext3 (using "tune2fs -j") with 
"fsck.ext3". Probably "fsck.ext3" adds additional information, and "parted" 
can't work with it.
2)after creating ext3 directly with "mkfs -t ext3 /dev/xxx", or using PM 
(namely, 8.0).

To say more, Disk Drake (with Mdk9.2) works fine with ext3.

I hope this will be fixed... soon...
Regards.
