before_delete_posts does not support custom post types

[ZaneMatthew]

Just curious if someone can verify that the action 'before_delete_posts' does not appear to be supported by custom post types.

From what I'm seeing it doesn't support it.

Can you provide some code to reproduce the issue?

register_post_type( 'test' );
$id = wp_insert_post( array( 'post_type' => 'test' ) );
var_dump( $id );
var_dump( did_action( 'before_delete_post' ) ); // 0
wp_delete_post( $id );
var_dump( did_action( 'before_delete_post' ) ); // 1

In other words, the action name is before_delete_post not before_delete_posts.
