Comment:

 The implementation of #8466 is affected by this.

 I was talking with dd32 and we were wondering whether we could indeed get
 away with storing custom post type stickies in
 `get_option('sticky_posts')`. The only contraindication I can think of is
 a theme that fetches that value and counts it, or something along those
 lines. As it is, that approach is already flawed, as a post can be sticky
 but doesn't need to be published, so their count would be off. Thus, we're
 only adding an additional dynamic as allowing posts of other types to be
 stickies.
