Comment:

 I'm not sure this constitutes 'major changes' but took a stab at a
 different option in [attachment:21543.diff]. Taking a cue from how
 `rewrite` was handled in `register_post_type()`, I allowed `public` to
 accept either a boolean or array. And it's backward compatible, so either
 of these works:
 {{{
 'public' => true
 }}}
 or
 {{{
 'public' => array(
         'admin_menu' => false,
         'meta_box' => true
 )
 }}}

 The indexes also default to true if not set.

 I'd appreciate some feedback on whether there's a more elegant way to go
 about it.
