If you don't mind spoiling your plans, are you thinking of continuing with the subclass-per-particle type approach, or eventually moving to something like a simple ECS architecture?

A full ECS architecture? I don't plan on it. But using some sort of trait / component structure could be worth if enough particles with a mixture of different and overlapping behaviors were introduced.
