 There are several instances where {{{get_current_screen()}}} /
 {{{WP_Screen::get}}} are trampling the screen id, which breaks things like
 meta boxes.

 Here's some that I've noticed:
 1. if your post_type slug contains "-new" (e.g. "breaking-news") or "-add"
 1. if your plugin page name contains hyphens with a post type or taxonomy
 slug after the first hyphen (e.g. "my-page")

 In the example of "breaking-news", the screen id gets changed to
 "breakings", which causes the "Publish" meta box to disappear.

 There are likely others.
