Shields: Weapon or Armor

Shields are classified as ITEMTYPE_WEAPON, but they show up under the armor filter. Now I've found out that, at least some, of the shield traits are actually ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_ARMOR_xxx instead of ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_WEAPON_xxx.

I've been trying to examine as many shields as I can find, but I've only found 3 shields with traits so far. Does anyone know IF "all" shield traits are ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_ARMOR_xxx? Can a shield ever have ITEM_TRAIT_TYPE_WEAPON_xxx on it? Even better does anyone have a list of all traitTypes that can appear on a shield? Some weapon & armor traits overlap, like they both can have intricate, but not all of them do.

I'm examining items by itemType & then trying to see if they have certain traits on them that apply to that itemType, but since shields are weapons & appear to use armor traits I need to know which traits my code needs to make a special exception for & which traits I can ignore (which ones cant be on a shield).
