 I'm building a new Menus meta box, that can add a new type of menu item,
 lets call it 'foobar'.

 The conditional inside `wp_ajax_add_menu_item()` is slightly off. It
 checks that the menu item type is not 'custom', then proceeds to assume
 that it's either post-type or taxonomy so it can do some DB look-ups and
 create an `$_object` variable which is then used. This means it's closed
 to other types of menu items.

 I've chosen 'foobar', so I can distinguish those items later on when
 walking through the front-end output.
