Comment (by rachelbaker):

 Replying to [comment:3 Oxymoron]:
 All your points here are correct.  I made a similar note in #30965, which
 wouldn't be solved by the suggested approach of allowing the result to be
 filtered.

 1. Reworking `get_comment_statuses()` in a backwards compatible way to be
 *useful* outside the XMLRPC endpoints.
 2. Create a new function that everyone else (including the WP REST API and
 XMLRPC API can use) and eventually deprecate `get_comment_statuses`

 Option 1 would be the ideal, if possible.

 +1 For the goal of removing the hard-coded comment statuses in favor of a
 single function that returns all core comment statuses (including `trash`)
 and is filterable (for the addition of custom statuses).
