It's missing. The intent was that type 0x04 is MTI.

No. All SAML 2.0 artifacts have an index field. The part after the index is
open.

Furthermore, there isn't a formal registry of artifact type codes, which
means there is no guarantee you won't step on somebody else.

Finally, it's just generally a bad thing IMHO. What does your artifact do
that requires its own type?
