 continue along those lines. Post types should be the domain of plugins,
 really. Making themes have additional knowledge of them is bad in general.

 I think the current WordPress structure is consistent, templates for CPT's
 are `{archive|single}-{post-type}.php`. My proposal in comment
 [comment:26] is to maintain this consistency with `{archive|single|embed
 }-{post-type}.php`.

 Pages are an exception, let's not further complicate the theming
 experience by adding another. It's logical that if a theme does not style
 a CPT it falls back to the default.
