Wouldn't it be easier to just treat anything with the VFX_ prefix that way? There may be currently unused VFX_ records (not referenced by any magic effect). They should not produce an error message.
Anyway, the magic effect table isn't implemented yet. Magic effect records are dropped on loading.

Re: #652: GMST Verifier
I tried that, actually. This works, however is is clearly not any ideal solution, since (as Scrawl stated) only few VFX are hardcoded, while the rest is specified by the effect. I don't think that it is illegal to create magic bolt without VFX_ named effect. In fact there is "shield_bolt" that seems to be a yet another magical bolt but without VFX prefix in id.
It seems that right now I can't do anything better than just hardcode morrowind.esm specific ids, so I will do excatly this.
