Which "normal" "Linux" type code are you talking about?  The one that's
marked "Linux filesystem"?  That sounds like it's simply shifting the
potential for trouble somewhere else.  The one for "Linux reserved"?
If that's the intent of that one, perhaps it should be clearer that it's
"reserved for user" rather than "reserved for some unknown OS use".  If
there were a "Linux general/other" type code, then I agree that that
would be fine, but I don't see one in the list.
