@var{type} can only "code" nowadays, but I am wondering we may have 
other types, such as "data", in the future.  I don't want to give the 
consumer of this notification an impression that "type=code" is 
hard-coded into notification.  If we don't have to worry about it at 
all, "[,type=code]" is fine to me.

 From the consumer of this notification's point of view, 'type' is more 
useful than 'name', because the consumer may don't know what ".text" 
section is, or on some ports, text section is not named as ".text", such 
as section ".text_vle" for VLE.
