Returning S_BULLET is ok as long as it is larger than
QGraphicsItem::UserType (65535) as stated in docs. If it is less you
may run into trouble once :-).

And I think that using type for your purposes is perfectly ok.

That doesn't mean it can't break some day if you use it incorrectly now ;-).

Cheers,
Dmitry.
