For the curious, here's what the DITA 1.3 specification allows for the @type attribute on <note> (second subsection on this page):
http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/dita/v1.3/os/part3-all-inclusive/langRef/attributes/thetypeattribute.html
The value "other" allows extensibility in conjunction with another attribute @othertype:

If there is a need to match with an existing standard/hierarchy/ontology
I'd rather see it done in an enumerated attribute than an element type.
