 This ticket is regarding the `wp_die()` function calls within the Media
 component and will cover the following locations. Please note links were
 correct at the time of testing and writing this up, but line numbers may
 have changed slightly:

 || **Filepath** || **Line Number** || **Context** || **Status Code** ||
 **New Code** || **Code Meaning** ||
 || src/wp-admin/themes.php      || [https://github.com/WordPress
 /wordpress-develop/blob/6.8/src/wp-admin/themes.php#L86 86] ||  User

 There are however the following function calls I have not touched as I
 felt they were already valid with their current status code:

 || **Filepath** || **Line Number** || **Status Code** ||
 || src/wp-admin/includes/theme-install.php ||
