Comment (by dd32):

 Replying to [comment:1 danielbachhuber]:
 > Is there a `post_type_supports` opt-in / -out for templates? I can see
 cases where automatically adding templates to some post types would be
 unexpected.

 Nope. All `post_type`s support page templates now - as long as the theme
 includes templates for that post type.

 As in the patch `wp_get_theme()->get_page_templates( null,
 $this->post_type )` is probably the best way to determine if there's page
 templates available for the current post type - as even pages can have no
 templates, perhaps the `if` should jue be changed to check that instead
 (So if the site has no page templates available for `post_type = page`,
 it's not exposed in the API)
