The breaking change is not only about the type parameter.
A URL like:

http://your-domain.tld/?tx_foobar=abc

worked before, but does not now. SO I'd rather pass the whole query 
string to the redirect than making something special for "type".

But cHash is indeed a problem here since it needs to be recreated for 
the new URL.

I'd rather use the "addQueryString" option for typolink, excluding "id" 
and "cHash" and recreate cHash if it was present before (don't know if 
this can be done easily).

Kind regards,
Helmut
