I wonder when/if util-linux will come with GPT aware tools. If that will happen, I would rather use those tools, as I trust kernel people more. But as long as that hasn't happened, we can make our users happy by including "something".. like this. I see this also comes with 'sgdisk', do you know if the input for that is comparable to sfdisk input?
