So it doesn't bother the iPod if you change the id?

I'm thinking parted should throw an exception noting the broken
partition and offer to fix it by changing the id, or deleting it.
Changing the id would have the added benefit of keeping Windows from
overwriting it.

Even if it worked and there were no known devices needing it at 0, it should be optional and allow to change it back. I have already faced a similar problem, having to jump through hoops, when restoring a partition layout and needing to set a "partition" to id 5 (extended).
