Comment (by mintindeed):

 Replying to [comment:3 nacin]:
 > Off the top of my head, I can think of four supersets of other flags:
 is_time, is_date, is_archive, is_singular. So, is_time is true when
 is_hour, is_minute, or is_second is true. is_date is true when is_day,
 is_month, or is_year. is_singular when is_single or is_page. (Also
 is_attachment, but when is_attachment is true, is_single XOR is_page is
 always true.) is_archive is a superset of a whole bunch of conditionals,
 such as is_tag, is_category, is_tax, is_post_type_archive, etc.

 much saner than a giant if/elseif/elseif/... statement.

 If I weren't trying to make it "everything for everybody" it would look
 more like this:

 {{{
 function where_am_i() {
         global $wp_query;

         if ( ! isset( $wp_query ) ) {
                 _doing_it_wrong( __FUNCTION__, __( 'Conditional query tags
 do not work before the query is run. Before then, they always return
 false.' ), '3.5' );
                 return false;
         }

         // Tried to maintain the hierarchy from query.php
         if ( true === $wp_query->is_robots ) {
                 return 'robots';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_attachment ) {
                 return 'attachment';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_page ) {
                 return 'page';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_single ) {
                 return 'single';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_search ) {
                 return 'search';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_time ) {
                 return 'time';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_date ) {
                 return 'date';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_category ) {
                 return 'category';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_tag ) {
                 return 'tag';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_tax ) {
                 return 'custom_taxonomy';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_author ) {
                 return 'author';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_post_type_archive ) {
                 return 'post_type';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_feed ) {
                 return 'feed';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_trackback ) {
                 return 'trackback';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_admin ) {
                 return 'admin';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_404 ) {
                 return '404';
         } elseif ( true === $wp_query->is_home ) {
                 return 'home';
         }

         return null;
 }
 }}}
