Comment (by nacin):

 Replying to [comment:3 azaozz]:
 > -1. I'd really hate to see CPT slugs like '1354345435' or even 'my-
 page-2344'. IMHO we needed to enforce that on CPT registration.

 We already do, with sanitize_key(). But there's nothing wrong with
 numbers, and we shouldn't make it more restrictive, as that'll break
 things. also think things like `411`, `thing2thing`, etc, where numbers
 are literally part of the type.
