Part No: 49699  Name: Panel 1 x 6 x 4 1/3 with Window and 4 Pin Holes

49699 Panel 1 x 6 x 4 1/3 with Window and 4 Pin Holes
Parts: Panel

I can't discover anything panel-ish about this part. I'd say it's
window, door, technic, other, vehicle, or pretty much anything except a panel...
What do you think it should be?

My first thought is technic or window frame

Well:

1. Window (or door) frame implies you could put a glass or panel (or door)
inside. That seems very unlikely with the technic holes in the way.

2. It’s been used in System (City) sets for now BUT it sure looks like a Technic
Brick, yet not really.
So Technic could do but not really “Technic Brick” and there are no similar parts
(that I know of) in the other Technic categories, that would mean it should fall
in the general “Technic” category, which is already overpopulated.

I’m not envying the catmins

Yep certainly a tough one. It's very clear what it is: A hatch. But how to
catalog it in the existing categories?
I'm voting Door Frame. Alternatively, Vehicle. It may be used in space bases,
but the whole point of hatches is that things are built up from compartments
that have been vehicles at some point.
Hmm, anyone remember the days when we had a "Space" category?

Also, it doesn't make much sense to call this part a cylinder:

 
Part No: 49949  Name: Cylinder 6 x 10 x 4 1/3 with Open Sides and Pin Holes
* 
49949 Cylinder 6 x 10 x 4 1/3 with Open Sides and Pin Holes
Parts: Cylinder

When its own counterpart that fits into it is a Slope:

 
Part No: 45411  Name: Slope, Curved 6 x 8 x 2 Double
* 
45411 Slope, Curved 6 x 8 x 2 Double
Parts: Slope, Curved

How about putting them both in Vehicle, Cylinder, or Aircraft?
