This is completely redundant if we have the data types property that you mentioned earlier (which I think we should do). The only thing you need is a property to say whether this quota is a "count" or "bytes". e.g. You may have a quota of max 50 Calendar objects and another quota that limits Email and CalendarEvent storage to a shared 50 GB.

I would prefer bytes.
