Comment (by beatpanda):

 This comes up ''a lot'' in my work, and some of my plugins and themes
 would be ''drastically'' better if this was core functionality. Right now
 I'm having to implement my own version of WordPress core functions to do
 this.

 I know this isn't likely to happen, but if the $data array used the
 EXTR_OVERWRITE option instead of EXTR_SKIP, that would be ''extremely''
 helpful, because then I could pass in a custom set of posts to a template
 as $posts or $post in the $data array and the template would still "just
 work".

 I came here to submit roughly this exact patch, which is roughly what my
 hacky implementation looks like. Please implement this.
