Comment(by nacin):

 I'm not convinced here's a need for this. It's not a straight up
 conditional, it's more complex. We also have a handful of functions we use
 that are similar, and it's arguably more confusing. We also might be
 introducing post_is_of_type.

 {{{
 ./wp-admin/import/blogger.php:116:      function token_is_valid() {
 ./wp-admin/includes/image.php:317:function file_is_valid_image($path) {
 ./wp-admin/includes/image.php:331:function
 file_is_displayable_image($path) {
 ./wp-admin/includes/misc.php:635:function win_is_writable($path) {
 ./wp-includes/category.php:209:function cat_is_ancestor_of( $cat1, $cat2 )
 {
 ./wp-includes/functions.php:2048:function path_is_absolute( $path ) {
 ./wp-includes/functions.php:3084:function url_is_accessable_via_ssl($url)
 ./wp-includes/ms-functions.php:1146:function upload_is_user_over_quota(
 $echo = true ) {
 ./wp-includes/ms-functions.php:1270:function upload_is_file_too_big(
 $upload ) {
 ./wp-includes/post.php:3578:function wp_attachment_is_image( $post_id = 0
 ) {
 ./wp-includes/post.php:4422:function wp_is_post_revision( $post ) {
 ./wp-includes/post.php:4438:function wp_is_post_autosave( $post ) {
 }}}
