Including my Filesystem in DiskUtility Format Options

I placed our filesystem in /System/Library/Filesystems where it seems to function fine for probing and mounting disks. I made reference to an /sbin/newfs_ style tool in the same manner as the /sbin/mount_ with nearly identical FSPersonalities dictionary as is used by the Info.plist of hfs.fs. I thought that would be all that would be required to list our filesystem as an option in the Erase tab of DiskUtility, but it isn't showing up. I can use the filesystem as an option to /usr/sbin/diskutil eraseDisk or eraseVolume and it seems to work correctly. Also, if I supply a dummy name for the format parameter to diskutil, the error message lists my filesystem's name as a "Valid Filesystem". Is there something else I must do to allow my filesystem to be in DiskUtility's "Volume Format" menu? This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
