Comment (by westonruter):

 @birgire patch is looking good! I don't think we need to worry about
 restricting which post types can have children. I think this
 `hierarchical` property is really more for the sake of the UI than a
 restriction on the data model. After all, an `attachment` post can have
 parent even though it isn't hierarchical.

 See my [https://github.com/xwp/wordpress-develop/pull/276/commits/0bfc4dc
 changes] for what needed to be done to apply [https://github.com
 /WordPress-Coding-Standards/WordPress-Coding-Standards WordPress-Coding-
 Standards].

 A build is running now: https://travis-ci.org/xwp/wordpress-
 develop/builds/284338738

 While this was marked as an enhancement, I'm inclined to include it in 4.9
 as it is closely related to #39254.
