 Since WordPress got a validation process now, the lack of a "denied"
 status appears.

 Validation process :
 1. author write a : draft
 2. author submit his draft : pending
 3. editor publish the post :  publish
 3b. editor does not want to publish : ???

 Of course posts can be deleted. But keeping "banished" posts in database
 can be useful for further references and cross checking.

 The name of the status is not fixed yet :
 "denied", "returned for review", "rejected", "disapproved"

 A good implementation of this enhancement may include a text message from
 the editor to the author (like an annotation attached to the post) giving
 the reason of rejection.
