Comment (by imath):

 In [changeset:"13431" 13431]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="13431"
 Use a custom post type instead of the page post type for directories

 - The `buddypress` post type is now the one used for the BP component
 directory page.
 - Introduce the `bp_core_set_unique_directory_page_slug()` function to
 make sure there is no conflict with an existing WP page when setting the
 BP Component directory page `post_name`.
 - Introduce the `bp_restricted` custom status. We'll be able to use it for
 future visibility features.
 - Deprecate the Admin Slugs screen and corresponding functions
 - Bump `raw_db_version` to `13422` (the first commit about merging BP
 Rewrites).
 -  Add an update function to update the post type of the existing BP
 component directory pages and potential WP Nav Menus including these.

 Props r-a-y, johnjamesjacoby, boonebgorges
