Comment (by GregLone):

 I second that.

 I have a [plugin](http://wordpress.org/plugins/sf-archiver/) that builds a
 custom type, like @GaryJ. So far I couldn't find a way to avoid 2 php
 notices because of that problem (the variable `$_object` is not set).
 Another way would be to add a filter in the switch, in a `default:`
 statement. Perhaps something like that:

 {{{
     default :
         $_object = apply_filters( $menu_item_data['menu-item-type'] .
 '_menu_item_type', false, $menu_item_data );
     break;
 }

 if ( $_object ) {
     $_menu_item = wp_setup_nav_menu_item( $_object );

     // Restore the missing menu item properties
     $menu_item_data['menu-item-description'] = $_menu_item->description;
 }
 }}}
