Comment (by chrisvanpatten):
I'm finding it difficult to articulate my exact thoughts, but I am
increasingly concerned about these changes drifting further and further
from the original construction of the feature as we get so late into the
RC cycle.
Further, I think it's important to clarify that the "implied contract" is
not only implied, it is ''assumed'', and could be argued that this has
always been a case of "doing it wrong". While I'm sympathetic to the
problems with page builders and third party plugins, I'd actually argue
that as image management and subsize generation gets more complex, there
is a clear case to firmly break from this implied contract, and reinforce
that WordPress should be fully trusted to handle filenames, and that third
party plugins should stop assuming that image URLs are a constant.
