Comment:

 Love this idea. I think automated tests for the new `resolve_post_date`
 function would be very helpful. It's also not obvious at first glance what
 is is meant by `Resolve the mysql-formatted post date from provided date
 and date GMT strings.` I wonder if a longer description might help.
 Perhaps:

 "Uses `wp_checkdate` to verify that the date passed in is a valid
 Gregorian-calendar date string. If no date is given, first attempt to use
 date_gmt otherwise fallback to useing the current time."
