Comment (by swissspidy):

 It's been a long time indeed...

 The PR looks good at first glance, but some tests would be great.

 Would this `$reloadable` flag still be needed if we ever implement a
 simple cache/registry like proposed in the other patches? FWIW such a
 class is working fine in [https://github.com/swissspidy/preferred-
 languages/blob/80f45ac2f3f439245e524e3503987d0483fe50ad/inc/class-
 preferred-languages-textdomain-registry.php Preferred Languages]

 We shouldn't neglect non-dotorg plugins/themes when adding this, that's
 why I worked on this more complex approach in the day. Any chance we could
 resurrect that?
