 Replying to [comment:36 scribu]:
 > There wouldn't be a WP_Page_Object, since then it would only be fair to
 have a different class for each post type, which isn't obvious how to do
 or even necessary.

 That's where I believe that a more abstracted class would be useful,
 posts,pages,custom types should, I think, use one central class, and
 depending on types, hierarchical or not, etc. w/e, have a child class for
 doing that stuff, and then that way, you can create any page or post type
 by creating new objects off of that sort of class hierarchy. Having "post"
 and "page" is much too generic to be predefined as builtin types if you
 ask me. since no one knows really what to call other "post types" or
 content types, post types is the most used, which contains the word 'post'
 in what everyone calls cpt's, which is a built in 'type' for 'posts'.

 I think posts could even be hierarchically broken down somehow, since
 posts is more or less, blog posts or site articles of w/e. and now with
 cpts posts could be anything, so it sort of adds a hierarchy to the type
 itself upon adding a cpt to your site.
