   | What does "gpt show" return when there is no gpt table?
 
 Nothing too interesting.
 
   | Isn't the exit status from that sufficient for testing?
 
 No, it exits 0 for that,
 
 I guess it could be changed, but the show command works,
 it isn't failing - I think Martin's decision to make the header
 command exit(1) is more appropriate - dumping the header
 if there is none can be seen as an error.
