 Currently `wp_insert_post()` accepts `wp_error` as a second parameter; if
 `true` is passed then `wp_insert_post()` is allowed to return a `WP_Error`
 object, if `false` it can only return a zero (0) on failure.

 `wp_update_post()` currently sets values and then delegates the work of
 updating to `wp_insert_post()`. ''Unfortunately''  `wp_update_post()` does
 '''''not''''' accept a second boolean parameter of  `wp_error` meaning it
 cannot receive back the same failure information that `wp_insert_post()`
 can.

 '''So this request is very simple: accept `wp_error` as an optional second
 parameter for `wp_update_post()` with a default of `false` and then to
 pass wp_error on through to `wp_insert_post()`.'''
