Description
Currently get_default_post_to_edit will generate a post with the specified post type, even if it doesn't exist. Let's give it a chance to do something else.
If this is conceptually a good idea, also do it during wp_insert_post() and other similar functions.

I don't think we need a check on API level.
We have checks on post-new.php and edit.php which prevents user errors. As a developer you should know your post type. Also existing stuff could rely on this, which would break by such a change.
