Comment:

 $type isn't validated against allowed values.  The main reason is because
 this should be considered a private method only used by other wpdb methods
 (Until we move to PHP 5 though, I can't actually make it private).  Also
 `__checked_selected_helper`, which does the same basic thing, doesn't do
 any validation.

 I suppose it could do some minor validation, but I don't see it being
 necessary (just my opinion).  I doesn't really add any additional
 security, since anything able to use that method would also be able to use
 `query` directly and avoid the validation.
