New Component Collections?

Is it possible to create new Component Types? Or are we limited to the handful shown in the 'Choose Type' dialog?

I thought it might be simply a matter of creating new subtype templates of type 'Custom Comp Collection' and 'Custom Component Template', but there seems to be more to it. You can create new ones, but they don't show up in the dialog.

I'm afraid the add-on is the defining what's a real Collection, but I'm hoping there's a trick.

TIA,
James Murray
