     Type:  defect (bug)   |      Status:  new 
 Priority:  normal         |   Milestone:  3.0 
Component:  Rewrite Rules  |     Version:  3.0 
 Severity:  normal         |    Keywords:      
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 At present, Its impossible to add/apply Endpoints to custom post_type's
 due to the Endpoint Mask being applied to the rule creation.

 Patch coming up has 2 sections to it
  * Adds support to add_endpoint() to specify a Endpoint mask to apply to
 the rule, Defaults to EP_NONE as it currently does
   * Changes WP_Rewrite::extra_permastructs from a String to an Array of
 ($rule, EP_MASK)
    * Backwards compatibility is retained for anything which adds to that
 directly..

  * Adds support to register_post_type() to specify a "permalink_epmask"
 arg, This defaults to EP_NONE as current
    * Can be set to, for example, EP_PERMALINK for the same endpoints as
 posts recieve
    * Used in conjuction with Part 1 of this patch, It allows for a custom
 value (For example, 2^15) to be passed with the post AND passed with a
 Endpoint, The result is being able to register endpoints for a specific
 custom post_type.

 I suspect this also currently would render endpoints for taxonomies not
 possible, but that would be a much less often used process
