Comment (by jipmoors):

 First of all, could you make the diff file from the trunk next time?
 Perhaps adding the ticket number in front would be a good addition for
 clearity.

 I suggest to move the filter to after the `wp_using_ext_object_cache()` so
 hooks won't get the wrong idea that they can manipulate stuff that is
 ignored later on.

 On the naming of the filter, I think it would be adding to the clearity if
 it represented more of what it's doing, 'allow_set_transient_to_options'.

 Setting 'result' to `true` does not reflect what the code is doing, I can
 imagine that not calling the actions on a success could result in unwanted
 behaviour but it sounds like the proper thing to do when you bypass saving
 the value. Would appreciate 2nd opinion on this.
