My suggestion is a drop-down box in the "Advanced" tab of "Drives" to control filesystem type
Why not make the default what the filesystem actually is?
Another option is to actually implement the NTFS-specific features of Windows, and call it NTFS.
That's actually the only viable option since there are apps that expect NTFS. We can't require users to change the fs type depending on which app they want to run.
I belive that having an option to specify fs type is still required as well because on Windows you are able to create FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS partitions that results in different behavior and functionality. Those behaviors could depend on the fs type setting.
