Hey Steffen,
+1 on reading.

The one thing that comes to mind here is that TSConfig can filter what 
types are available so the first type in the TCA may not be the first 
type when a record is actually created, but from your description it 
doesn't sound like that will really matter and probably wasn't accounted 
for in the past either. Just wanted to point it out in case its a larger 
issue than what I'm seeing :)

Thanks,
Jeff
