Comment:

 This is exactly as described. When a new post type is registered via
 [register_post_type](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_post_type/)
 function and show_in_menu is equal to parent menu slug such as
 'edit.php?post_type=page' this custom post type will be placed into this
 parent submenu but 'menu_position' argument has no effect on this.

 Modified code is provided by reporter is to  _add_post_type_submenus()
 function.

 It looks like a strait forward patch, and the only downside of this will
 be that custom post types used in submenus will suddenly be affected by
 menu order if it exists.
