There are not any different feature types for the 2D raster maps that are input to this module. I assume that while the nature of the raster map affects the vector feature type to some extent, this argument can force it to output a particular feature type when there is the potential for multiple feature type output. I suppose simply “feature type” is OK. But it is the output vector map that is being referred to in any case and “input” feature type is misleading IMHO. Probably revert http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/changeset/59324? Or create separate options G_OPT_V_TYPE_INPUT, G_OPT_V_TYPE_OUTPUT? But the input is always a raster. So there is no reason for an option G_OPT_V_TYPE_INPUT The output is always a vector, which CAN have different feature types, so there is a reason for G_OPT_V_TYPE_OUTPUT.
