Creating NTFS/FAT partitions results to partition type "Linux"

[enolive]

When trying to create a partition with FAT or NTFS as its file system with gnome-disk-utility, the resulting partition type id is always 83 (Linux). This renders the partition useless in Windows, while Ubuntu has no problems using it. This might effect inexperienced users that are to my understanding the primary target for this tool. You can change the partition type manually after the creation (e.g. to HPFS/NTFS).

This bug also appears when I specify the file system myself with the Custom option in the creation dialog.
