I don't think they have to break down types of fiber %'s by law.
Some companies are just more consumer oriented, and will do nice helpful things on their own. Lay's is a good example. They removed transfats years before the 2006 mandated deadline.
Soluble fiber is more useful for lowering cholesterol, IMO.
This link lists "voluntary labeling"...which seems to include fiber:

I read food labels ALOT... and I have noticed a trend with the things I buy now have potassium content listed in grams per serving.
I don't think that is mandatory either, but put on there by the food company.
