Comment:

 I have a few questions I'd like clarified before this can be deemed ready.

 @garrett-eclipse Can you clarify the original intent of the ticket? As I
 understand it, you are saying that all three of those special page types
 should be denoted in the Customizer and your screenshot just happened to
 show the Privacy Policy. Is that correct?

 Also, although these pages are "special", I'm not convinced that adding
 them to the menu as a `custom` type is the correct behavior. Home is kind
 of an outlier because there usually is not an actual page in WordPress for
 "home".

 For example, say someone selects the page selected as the Privacy Policy
 page on their site, and then a week later, they change the URL slug for
 that page. The link would then be a 404. If the menu item was added as a
 regular Page item, the URL would update automatically.
