Ohh, I had a proper look at the code now. It seems that Type=0 is called when we upload a 0 sized tile which is a request to delete both the Blank Tile *and* the Real Tile. Why would we have such a feature? I can understand why people would replace false tiles with blank ones, but deleting *both* will leave a gap in there and should not be allowed IMHO.

t at h client developers: in which cases would we upload 0-sized tile files?

Opinions.
