Well, the point of that first patch from me here (which references bug
1138820) was to provide a mechanism to allow them to set that default
for just a single product.  There's been no further work along those
lines, nor talk in the bug, so I imagine it's still not implemented.
But it certainly ought to be easy to do so now.

--fstype is there to define the formatting used.  Think of it as the
string you would add after "mkfs." to make a filesystem.  Perhaps --type
is more what you're thinking of, given that it is used to define what
kind of scheme you want?  I'm not sure why a new autopart argument would
be handy here, though.
