Comment (by poena):

 Do I understand correctly that from 7.0, 'script' added like in the code
 example below will not do anything and the bundled themes should be
 updated to remove it?
 And if they don't remove it now, nothing will break, it's just about
 tidying up.


 {{{

                 add_theme_support(
                         'html5',
                         array(
                                 'comment-form',
                                 'comment-list',
                                 'gallery',
                                 'caption',
                                 'style',
                                 'script',
                                 'navigation-widgets',
                         )
                 );
 }}}
