Comment (by jondavidjohn):

 Not sure what you mean by *still* registered... again `switch_to_blog`
 does not change the environment, only the database the queries point at.

 When you are querying a taxonomy you are changing the defaults.  If you do
 a tax query for a taxonomy registered only to a custom post_type, you
 expect to get back posts instead of the type it's registered to?  That
 would be (was) confusing.  Maybe documentation needs to be updated, but
 this is decidedly a more logical and expected behavior.

 Also, this patch does not stomp explicitly given post_type's in the
 WP_Query, if you provide 'post' as a post type to the query, it will use
 that.

 It might be clearer to communicate your proposed solution via a patch.
