 === Additional Notes
 Before applying the patch, I noticed the sequence of changes in post
 status affects dates.

 - From a fresh post (not yet published or made private), changes to draft,
 pending, or scheduled correctly update scheduled/modified dates (publish
 time remains immediate or at scheduled time)

 - Once set to private or published, the publish date resets to the current
 time, and later any changes to draft, pending and private shows an
 incorrect modified date (stuck at the private/published conversion).

 The patch correctly handles all non-scheduled/unpublished cases, so this
 shouldn't matter, but this sequence difference may explain why it only
 seemed to affect private posts for @abcd95 while other states for @gchriz
