Comment:

 I don't think we currently *need* a way to turn off the ability to create
 stubs for nav menu items. Since the `post_format` taxonomy is the only
 known use case for needing to turn off stub creation, and since term stubs
 aren't going to be part of 4.7 (per #37915) I think we can punt this to
 Future Release.

 And the ticket isn't about turning off stub creation _entirely_ but rather
 turning off stub creation for specific object types. So in
 [attachment:37916.2.diff] the `customize_create_nav_menu_content` filter
 would need to be amended with additional context for the specific
 `post_type` or `taxonomy`.
