Comment:

 I tackled just this problem with my [http://somadesign.ca/projects
 /smarter-custom-post-types/ Smarter Custom Post Types], so just as a
 reference to something that's proven moderately popular:

  1. post_type/index.php - landing page/archive template
  1. post_type/single.php - template for single post

 It's not a complete solution by any means, but just adding to the mix. I
 think the key thing for custom post types is to favor using subdirectories
 rather than filling up the theme root any more.
