Comment:

 Core is moving to custom implementations with the Media Models/Views,
 theme browser, etc. and doesn't have a need for another external library
 at this time.
 Thickbox itself is used less frequently and will probably be phased out in
 Core over time, whenever relevant areas are touched/refactored, in favor
 of such custom models/views. It needs to stay for backward compatibility
 though, as plugins might rely on it.
 With #26870, efforts are being made to document the Media Models/Views
 code so that they can be used more easily by plugins.
