Comment (by cfinke):

 Since the patch eliminates the use of `get_shortcode_regex()` in
 `do_shortcode()`, other places in the code that call
 `get_shortcode_regex()` could potentially be updated to use
 `WP_Shortcode_Parser` as well:

 * `has_shortcode()`
 * `strip_shortcodes()`
 * `do_shortcodes_in_html_tags()`
 * `get_post_galleries()`
 * `wp_ajax_parse_embed()`

 This wouldn't have to happen simultaneously with switching
 `do_shortcode()` to use `WP_Shortcode_Parser`, but it might not be a bad
 idea so that everything that parses shortcodes does it consistently.
