Great timing -- I was creating a similar list of my own, but you beat me to it! It's really very strange to me that I'm not immediately finding a list like this in the WordPress documentation -- my Google-fu brought me here.

+1 For being in the official docs. I spent way too much time searching for this before finding it, but so glad I finally did. Thanks for putting this together!
