Comment (by hheuzebrutc):
Well at first I wasn't touching the URL at all, as mentioned above I was
making a custom form as a shortcode, with several input fields grouped
together in an array that happened to have the same name as one of my
custom post types, something like post_type[input_name]. And no matter
what I did, WordPress Core always crashed before my form had a chance to
be processed. I figured it was something to do with query vars and tried
it with the URL as well. I chose attachments in my example because as far
as I can tell, it's the only public post type that's guaranteed to do this
on every WordPress site.
