I don't think it's possible to accomplish this without code change.

In CS2.1 one of community members asked team to add a new ApplicationType enumration for Wiki and they did it.  If you think this enumeration can be useful for others, test your chance and contact team.

This is a subject that came up at the CS Developer Summit in September.  No, as Keyvan says you are kind of taking your chances at this point.  The Core Team is aware of this and we may see something in CS 3.0 to address configurable ApplicationType enumerators but no firm word yet.

Without the code you are forced to look at the dll with reflector.

Looking quickly, it doesn't appear that the ApplicationType Enum was removed... it looks like it was extended even further:

public enum ApplicationType
{
    Admin = 0x270e,
    Ads = 9,
    All = 0x1869f,
    BlogRoller = 8,
    Calendar = 4,
    ContentManagement = 5,
    FeedReader = 7,
    FileGallery = 6,
    Forum = 0,
    Gallery = 2,
    GuestBook = 3,
    Installer = 0x270d,
    MyKB = 0x34,
    Spam = 10,
    Store = 0x1018,
    Unknown = 0x270f,
    Weblog = 1,
    Wiki = 0x35
}

I am not Dave, but I can answer the question.

The ApplicationType enumerator has not been removed from CS2007. We have started planning out the change and it will be part of some larger API upgrades we do as we build out the CMS application and web services APIs. You will see parts of this in 2007.1 and 2007.2 (applicationtype will likely be in .1)

HTH,
Scott
