 Replying to [comment:7 johnbillion]:
 > [attachment:24252.2.diff] is just Ipstenu's patch updated with correct
 path for src.
 >
 > The reason Windows Phone isn't currently included in `is_mobile()` is
 due to odd behaviour in the admin area in Windows Phone 7 when it was
 treated as a mobile device (some discussion on #20614).
 >
 > Here's a list of things that'll need to be tested in the admin area
 using Windows Phone 7 and 8 in order to get this patch in:
 >
 >  * Viewport width on the login screen and general admin screens
 >  * Access to controls in the admin area which only appear on hover for
 desktop devices, for example the action links on post listing screens (and
 Comments screen, Users screen, etc)
 >  * Using the rich editor (TinyMCE)
 >  * Adding and reordering items on the Widgets screen and the Menus
 screen
 >
 > Hands up who has access to a Windows Phone device they can try this
 with? (With the patch applied of course.)

 I can definitely try this out on Windows 10 Mobile.
