Comment (by swissspidy):

 @flixos90 `wp_oembed_add_provider()` and
 `WP_oEmbed::_add_provider_early()` come to mind.

 If the post type doesn't exist yet, the feature could still be added to
 the global and upon post type registration it would be taken out of there
 and added to the actual post type object.

 Adding a return value wouldn't help much as developers don't check them
 since it's a void function. A `_doing_it_wrong()` could be triggered so
 that eventually we might get rid of the global array in the future.
