Comment (by pento):

 Note that
 [https://github.com/search?q=wp_kses_js_entities&type=Code&utf8=%E2%9C%93
 a lot of plugins] use `wp_kses_js_entities()`, so a patch can only remove
 calls to the function, the function itself needs to stay (probably in
 `kses.php`, too, for anything that loads KSES directly).
