Comment:

 Closing this. I don't think anything's changed since closed the previous
 ticket (#12617):

 > Closing as wontfix. What follows is by no means a complete list of
 reasons:
 >
 > If this is ever indicated as desired by the core development team, it
 would be the result of planning sessions and extensive discussion, and
 would be a blessed task as a major feature for a future release. There's
 no need to leave this ticket open for when or if that ever happens.
 >
 > Plugins and themes should be handling custom post type creation. A
 plugin or theme needs to actually expose them anyway. Additionally, 3.0+
 management plugins already exist.
 >
 > Also, it's extremely easy to create a custom post type. If you have the
 skills to develop the theme that actually uses a custom post type, you
 will know enough to be able to register the post type. See also the
 preceding paragraph.
