 We could port most of the Post Type handling internals like
 register_post_type > register_comment_type and get_post_type >
 get_comment_type which would make this implementation in core easier. We
 could also register the built-in types like comment/pingback etc

 Then, comment_type could be implemented like post_type is in edit.php, for
 the comments page, and allow for the new comment types to be added into
 their own menus.

 I love the potential of what Custom Comment Types can bring, but
 unfortunately not having an API to work with them can make it cumbersome
 to build with.

 I can make a first pass at a patch on this if anyone is interested in
 moving this forward.
