 When editing a page, you don't usually end up with post_type in the URL.
 That should be fine. But in admin.php, we assume that if no post type is
 specified, then typenow and current_screen ends up with incorrect
 information, and it's difficult to properly detect what's going on.

 One fix would be to detect the post type based on the ID. Or, we can force
 a redirect and force all URLs to contain the proper post_type parameter
 except for post_type = post.
