 Upfront, archive-POST_TYPE.php does not always resolve correctly - But
 considering the whole scope of things > Custom Post Type support is
 lacking in general / and such would be easy enough to bring the wordpress
 core up to the task / INCLUDING WIDGETS

 I see no impedance to updating the core as to create a sensitivity that
 could handle ALL aspects of custom post types, once created, as the core
 handles posts, pages, attachments, menus - everything is there - we just
 need to open it a slight bit wider...

 AND TA-DA - FULLY FUNCTIONAL & INTEGRATED CUSTOM POST TYPES THE MOMENT
 THEY ARE CREATED . . .

 IF (wp community is) open to this idea / and time enough for inclusion in
 3.2 > I'll submit code as needed.


 here's a small pseudo taste:

 default widgets, like Categories, Tag Cloud, Calender, ETC. run check for
 none built_in post types - when present & compatible > widget presents new
 option as to which post types it is desired to be used for...

 -- i've already done (dev'ed) this / easy stuff here guys / and powerful >
 sure beats the current run around
