 As pointed out in a
 [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_meta/#comment-2483
 contributor note] by @janwoostendorp, the current description for the
 `$object_type` parameter in `register_meta()` is a little vague: "Type of
 object this meta is registered to."

 We could do better about documenting a few potential object types that it
 can accept. Obviously it's not limited to core object types, but giving
 some examples provides insight into what's expected.

 Best recommendation for a patch would be to add an open-ended statement to
 the description along the lines of "Accepts ... or any other object with
 an associated meta table."
