I do not dispute that at all.

But you can specify the type name in the "commit" phase, it doesn't
have to be at "fsopen" time.

In fact, doing so would _force_ a certain cleanliness to the
interfaces - it would force the rest to be filesystem-agnostic, rather
than possibly have semantic hacks for some part.
