As I read Ian's proposal, it still dynamically detects the partition
types at boot time.  It's just that the table of known partition types
is built by boot0cfg based on the partition types when boot0cfg is
run.  If you change a partition partition type then the new partition
type may not be recognized but that is no worse than the current
situation.

It would probably be possible to pad the available space with other
"common" partition types.
