When you convert from dictionary to local, then you
will see the USER allocation type - because all of the
segments that already exist in the tablespace.
You also need to be careful when converting that you
have a reasonable size for common denominator of all
extents. If you had (for example) some 128k and some
136k extents, then the local tspace conversion would
need it bitmaps based on 8k - not probably what you
had in mind.
