Comment:

 Hi there! Thanks for your patch @hlashbrooke, I refreshed it against the
 current version in [attachment:610-meta.diff], also cleaned up some space
 vs tabs, changed the $type vs $post_type vs $post_type_object to follow
 what core uses.

 And also a note about the usage of `_n()` and other localization functions
 - you can't really construct strings from variables, all strings passed to
 such functions should actually be strings for translation tools to pick
 them up. That said, we could have used the singular and name labels for
 the registered post types, however, for some languages plural has more
 than one form, which means we can't. I'm pretty sure there's a core ticket
 to address this, but I can't find it right now. A workaround is to use
 hard-coded strings, which is what core does for posts and pages.

 This patch is ready for commit, but an extra couple eyes on it won't hurt.
