User defined name type
The GEDCOM specification (https://gedcom.io/specifications/ged551.pdf, page 56) allows user defined types of names:
NAME_TYPE:= [ aka | birth | immigrant | maiden | married | <user defined>] ... user_defined= other text name that defines the name type.
IMO the following structure is completely ok:
0 @I1@ INDI
1 NAME Max /Mustermann/
2 SURN Mustermann
2 GIVN Max
2 TYPE adoption
Unfortunateley, GEDKeeper deletes TYPE-lines that do not have a value GEDKeeper knows (e.g. 2 TYPE adoption).
There may be problems here :(
