Comment (by swissspidy):

 [attachment:14761.diff] is the beginning of a patch for this, based on
 #28.

 > * Remove the query var from the WP class, if one was registered.
 > * Remove registered custom meta capabilities from
 _post_type_meta_capabilities().
 > * Remove all post type support.
 > * Remove any rewrite tags, permastructs, and rules.
 > * Remove the callback for handling any meta boxes.
 > * Remove the post type from any taxonomies.
 > * Remove the future post hook callback.

 Need to implement `remove_rewrite_tag` and figure out how to properly
 remove meta caps. Any help appreciated.
