 Hi everyone 👋

 I’m following up on this ticket after a few months of inactivity.

 I just wanted to kindly ask if someone could take another look at the
 proposed enhancement, or let me know if anything is still unclear or needs
 adjustment.

 The proposed `get_pages_args` filter is intentionally very small and fully
 backward-compatible, but it fills a real gap: it allows developers to
 modify `get_pages()` arguments *before* they are parsed, something that
 cannot be achieved through `get_pages_query_args` alone when working with
 third-party code that relies on `get_pages()` and `wp_dropdown_pages()`.

 If this enhancement is not desirable for some reason, I would also really
 appreciate understanding why, so I can adjust the proposal accordingly or
 close the ticket.

 Thanks again for your time and for all the work you do on WordPress 🙏
