I am currently adding new features to ddrescuelog and this could be one
of them. It could be implemented like this:

   ddrescuelog -i<start> -s<size> --change-types=<old_types>,<new_types>
logfile > new_logfile

This would change all blocks in domain (<start>, <size>) from one type
in <old_types> to the corresponding type in <new_types>, much like the
"tr" command does.

What do you think?


Regards,
Antonio.
