Yeah, sure, it's not like I can afford to avoid fixing it at this point anyway, but I still want to point out it's at the wrong layer and shouldn't have been added like this, really. If you want blkid to identify it, the proper thing to do would be querying blk device for the claimer and then use claimer-specific method to query them. It's not like the current method would make sense for btrfs or whatnot. So, yeap, I definitely am fixing it but let's not do things like this in the future.
