Summary:
If you want to add a child pane to an iOS settings bundle, the convenient way to add this would be to add an item in the plist and set the type to be "Child Pane" in the drop-down menu for the item. However, there is no such option, and you have got to manually edit the plist in a text editor to set the item type to "PSChildPaneSpecifier" to do this.

Steps to Reproduce:
See screenshot -- after manually editing the type in the plist, it shows up correctly as the type, but observe that it's still not an option in the drop-down menu.

Expected Results:
"Child Pane" should be present in the drop-down menu.

Actual Results:
"Child Pane" is not present in the drop-down menu.

Version:
7.2.1 (7C1002)

Looking further at this, the "Type" key in the dictionary shows "Child Pane" in the value in the drop-down list correctly, it's only the drop-down list. It's an inconsistency between the two drop-down lists that you can change this detail in. See the attached screenshot for the other one with the expected item.
