I've been using the same hydraulic oil in both jacks and dampers for 40
years (OK, not much in either case) without problems with either i.e. from 
foaming.  An advantage of fork
oil can be if it contains a seal swelling agent, but whether that is just
snake oil advertising or fact is anyone's guess.
