Comment (by manfcarlo):

 Thanks for working on this, I'd expect wp-content to be hard-coded in some
 plugins but I'm shocked that it's still hard-coded in core.

 With wp-includes, I thought changing it wasn't supported, and it looks
 like none of the define statements for WPINC actually check that it isn't
 already defined, so the hard-coding of that one is maybe less of an issue.

 Upon a quick check I see that /wp-admin/load-styles.php also defines
 WP_CONTENT_DIR without checking if it's already defined. Maybe this is
 also a defect?
