Comment (by spacedmonkey):

 In [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/4575/4575.3.diff
 4575.3.diff] I have refreshed the patch so it applies to trunk at time of
 writing and improved the tests.

 This ticket has been ready for 18 months and was signed by two compound
 maintainers (myself and @stevenkword ). I am not sure I under @pento point
 about touching `wp_query`. The functions access the variable but doesn't
 modify it in anyway, just reads values. Tonnes of other functions in core
 do this, so I am not sure I understand the issue here.

 This should be merge first thing in 5.2 as it has been bumped from every
 release since 4.6.
