Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):
Replying to [comment:3 dd32]:
> Core does fetch the list of tags from WordPress.org (and we version-gate
tag changes), and only falls back to an internal list in the event the API
is unavailable.
Looks like that's no longer accurate as of WordPress 4.9:
* [WP41648] removed a bunch of theme features from the core list.
* [WP42003] then disabled the API call on Add Themes screen "due to
inconsistencies and to ensure tags are translated".
With those changes, every instance of `get_theme_feature_list()` as of
WordPress 4.9 no longer calls the API and just returns the hardcoded list.
One exception is the instance in `install_themes_dashboard()`, however
that function is not used anywhere.
Created #WP50165 to track the changes and try to reconcile the
differences, so that the API could be used again.
