Comment(by jfarthing84):

 All administration areas that need to check whether or not they should
 handle a post type should check against the 'public' argument rather than
 the 'show_ui' argument. The 'show_ui' argument is only related to the
 context of WordPress creating a default UI for it.

 However, if a plugin wishes to create it's own UI but use the built-in WP
 pages for submission, it get's rejected because 'show_ui' is false. I
 believe this is the purpose for the 'public' variable and the difference
 between the two.

 I notice specifically two areas where this should be changed: 'wp-admin
 /edit-tags.php' and 'wp-admin/includes/template.php'.

 I have attached a patch.
