Comment (by rachelbaker):

 Looks like they are also used in
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/wp-admin/post.php#L46
 redirect_post()]  and [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src
 /wp-admin/includes/post.php#L583  get_default_post_to_edit()]

 Replying to [comment:49 valendesigns]:
 > The only place left in Core that uses `default_comment_status` and
 `default_ping_status` is in `class-wp-xmlrpc-server.php` and I'm not sure
 the best way to test the changes made to that file so I'm hesitant to make
 changes I can't verify. I've uploaded a patch that fixes the filter
 though.
