SUMMARY

After clicking by accident "Setting > Panels Show > Log Output" I noticed that one of my devices had one unaligned partition (it was unaligned at the end).

This information was shown nowhere else, both the device and partition properties reported no issues or warnings


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create disk with unaligned partition
2. verify that in partition manager this information is shown nowhere except the log output

OBSERVED RESULT
See description

EXPECTED RESULT
Even if not only a "soft error" (I've used after all the drive for years before noticing this issue) I believe it would make sense if partition manager would show as warning or information that there are unaligned partition.
KDE partition manager already has this information, thus it is not an additional check that it would do when scanning for devices.
