Comment (by Kaloyan):

 There are places in the code with defensive `class_exists()` checks before
 class declarations, like this:

 `if ( ! class_exists( 'Some_Class', false ) ) class Some_Class {}`

 Considering the autoloading changes, do you think those defensive checks
 are still going to be necessary?
