Comment(by jfarthing84):
It should be used to determine how to handle custom post types within
built-in functions just as I am proposing to use it.
For instance, setting the inherit type to 'attachment' tells the core that
this is an attachment, otherwise the core would not know if a custom post
type of "doohickey" is supposed to be a post, page, attachment or what.
So, I set "doohickey" to post and the core will display this with posts
and use the post edit screen to edit it, etc.
If I set "doohickey" to attachment, the core should display it with
attachments and use the edit attachment screen to edit it, etc.
So on and so forth. It makes perfect sense. Make me a commiter and I'll
help implement it! ;-)
