Comment (by benbalter):

 Agree with husobj that exclusive hierarchical taxonomies are possible
 (think organizing a patches CPT by WP version #, you'd have 3.2 as a top
 level term, and under that 3.2.1, 3.2.2, etc.).

 Following up on the progress of #18179 per nacin's comment, it looks like
 the direction WP_Meta_Box went may make this easier in the long run, but
 in the near term doesn't natively support anything approaching the UI
 described.

 Glad to take a first pass at this, to move things along, and if
 WP_Meta_Boxes becomes core, shouldn't be too hard to incorporate.

 Either way, it sounds like the general consensus is adding an `input` to
 the `register_post_type()` args array, to accept check, input, radio, or
 dropdown?
