Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 Replying to [comment:1 SergeyBiryukov]:
 > `WP_Post_Type::set_props()` already sets any custom properties you pass
 to `register_post_type()`, so this appears to be possible without any
 special support from WordPress core.

 > Just tested by adding `'source' => 'bbpress'` to the post types in
 `bbPress::register_post_types()` and checking `get_post_types( array(
 'source' => 'bbpress' ) )`.

 Yep! It will work, but... I think it's an idea worth officially endorsing
 and promoting as a best practice.

 (I added it to bbPress as I was creating this ticket:
