Anywhere you set with = is a 'hard' assignment which we cannot override. Several of hobs settings are in hob-post.conf, if they have already been hard assigned in a configuration file which is parsed earlier we cannot override it. If you set the IMAGE_FSTYPES with ?= setting them from the GUI should world. Please be aware we're working to resolve such issues for hob in Yocto 1.2.
