 * milestone:  6.8 => 6.9


Comment:

 Based on the latest discussion on the PR https://github.com/WordPress
 /wordpress-develop/pull/5098, I don't think this is ready to land this
 late in the cycle.

 I'm on board with removing public write access to these properties, but
 because this is technically a breaking change (albeit only for edge-cases
 that are strongly discouraged), we should land it `early` next cycle.
 FWIW, the ticket is already marked `early`, and it's definitely too late
 for that in 6.8.
