The disk system lists are auto-generated. It might not be trivial to
discriminate between the disk system for the partition map and the one for the
extended partition. That could be hard-coded, of course. The other than that,
the layout suggests that nesting of partitioning systems will no longer be
possible, since only the disk could be initialized with one of those. While it
isn't exactly a common use case, I would regret having no way at all to do that
at all.
