 Presently the available (default) post_types and post_statuses are stored
 in wp-includes/post.php and called on init.
 Shouldn't they be stored in the DB (perhaps in the options table). This
 would make it much easier / cleaner to add / manage custom post_types.
 Essentially as the post_type array contains meta-data about that posts of
 that type I don't believe that it is good practice to store that
 statically.

 This could be very easily implemented for 3.0 release and clean up a whole
 lot of hacking / issues and make a uniform way of storing custom
 post_types.
