It should be pretty easy to add that to parted, since nowadays the only
filesystem support it has is probing support.  I suggest preparing a
patch against git://git.sv.gnu.org/parted.git master that adds the
ability to detect existing reiser4 partitions and sending it upstream;
it should only be on the order of a hundred lines.

I'd be happy to cherry-pick such a patch into the Debian packaging once
it has been committed upstream.
