Comment (by figureone):

 This fix has changed behavior in the `wp_logout` filter. Prior to
 WordPress 5.3, plugin developers could use `get_current_user_id()` inside
 the hook to get the ID of the user logging out.
 https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/master/wp-
 includes/pluggable.php#L566-L582

 For example, in a plugin that links external authentication services (like
 Google, LDAP, CAS) we use it to log the user out of their external
 account.

 Maybe we can add a `pre_wp_logout` hook at the beginning of the
 `wp_logout()` function for cases where we need to refer to the logging out
 user?
