Issue Summary
I was looking for a module that would list nodes per content type just as "taxonomy/term/nnn" would and this module is consistent with that. In the project page you mentioned that you are giving up development in favor of the get_content_type module (gct), which I also checked out. But this project sets up the display far simpler (thus much better) than the gct module.
I can only suggest the following:
1. Use of content type "name" instead of "type" for page title;
2. putting an option to display the content type description, and;
3. feature to use url filtering like the way node_type_filter module does it (which is also somewhat consistent with core taxonomy term page listing). Something like "node/type/xxx".
I hope you will reconsider continuing with this project and perhaps get it into the Drupal core.

I just noticed, url filtering is a feature in the get_content_type module and it does use "node/type/xxx" to do the trick. however, i still think nodetypeviews standard formatting is the way to go.

I don't know whether it is planned to provide such functionality in Drupal 7 core, but it would make sense to have default views for content types.
The get_content_type module does a good job. I am not sure what you mean by standard formatting though.
