yes but that the only file that give you the ability to force the auto
type, or at least make it that by default is purposing (from
util-linux/mount/mount_guess_fstype.c) :

static char
*magic_known[] = {
	"adfs", "bfs", "cramfs", "ext", "ext2", "ext3",
	"hfs", "hpfs", "iso9660", "minix", "ntfs",
	"qnx4", "reiserfs", "romfs", "swap", "udf", "ufs",
	"vxfs", "xfs", "xiafs"
};

since they are auto detected by magic number....
