 I have two concerns with the post editor for custom post types. First,
 WordPress has built in generic notification messages when a post type is
 updated, saved as draft, etc. The only built in support is for posts and
 pages.

 Custom post types must filter their own messages through
 'post_updated_messages' filter independently. I propose a pre-built
 solution that automatically supports these custom update messages. Labels
 will be pulled from the $labels array defined when registering the custom
 post type. No new labels are needed, the existing ones are fine. My
 solution also adds a new filter {$post_type}_updated_messages, where
 developers can modify these generated messages as before if needed.

 Secondly, custom post types listed as 'public' => false, and 'show_ui' =>
 true are still shown "View Post", "Preview", and permalink editing boxes
 that all lead to a 404 error message. I propose checking if public is true
 before displaying these items.

 I've attached a diff with these modifications. Feed back?
