Comment (by drzraf):

 In our we have restaurants and "tweaked" the rewrite (cf OP) in order to
 have provide
 {{{
 /<city>/<slug>
 }}}
 URL rather than the much more cumbersome
 {{{
 /restaurant/<city>/<slug>
 }}}
 That best represents the main goal of the website which has no value being
 artificially namespaced.

 We also have a couple of other CPT of less significance (and none of them
 is named after a city) so that conflict are not going to be an issue (or
 at least a minor issue in comparison to having clean URL)

 Having an officially-supported way to omit the CPT URL's segment would be
 appreciated.
