Frankly, – no idea; I don’t seem to recall seeing one so far.
In order not to place such checks all over the code, we may
want either a separate tar-header-service-p function for the
tar-untar-buffer callers to use to decide whether the file will
be extracted or not, /or/ an optional filter function argument
to tar-untar-buffer for the /caller/ to specify which files to
filter out.

It doesn’t seem to provide anything beyond the name of the type.
