 I'm facing a problem with the pre-publish panel's behavior when a custom
 post status is selected in WordPress 6.6.

 I have tested the pre-publish panel behavior on two different WordPress
 versions using the Playground(https://wordpress.org/playground/). In WP
 6.4, when creating a new post and selecting a custom post status (e.g.,
 "Ready for Publish"), the pre-publish panel appears as expected. However,
 in WP 6.6, following the same steps, the custom status is set in the
 backend, but WordPress core treats it as a draft, and the post is not
 published. At this point, I have to click the "Publish" button again for
 the pre-publish panel to appear. This change has altered the previous
 post-publish behavior.

 Please refer to the screenshots for more details:

 WordPress 6.4: https://we.tl/t-ho4nMzZg7S
 WordPress 6.6: https://we.tl/t-pZ0yXxtUaB

 In summary, the issue is:
 **Actual Behavior in WP 6.6:** The pre-publish panel does not appear on
 the initial "Publish" button click after selecting a custom post status.

 **Expected Behavior:** The pre-publish panel should appear on the initial
 "Publish" button click, even after selecting a custom post status.
