Comment:

 dancameron - Thanks so much for the updated patch.

 These changes should allow plugin authors to work around the fact that we
 don't currently have a robust method of registering custom comment types.
 I think we should explore what a `register_comment_type()` API would look
 accomplish, but I think it should probably happen somewhere other than in
 this Trac ticket. If this is something that others are interested in,
 maybe a proposal could be worked up and shared on, eg,
 make.wordpress.org/core, and we could have a broader community discussion
 about goals. (sc0ttclark's github experiments described here
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12668#comment:21 might be a good
 technical starting point)

 In the meantime, in the interest of having a ticket to close against this
 milestone, I'm going to mark this ticket as resolved. When there's a more
 concrete proposal for a full comment type API, let's open a new ticket
 that references this one.
