 Would that be a valid fix for core?

 `img_caption_shortcode_content`, although it would likely require more
 testing. Also, it's worth seeing what will the
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/09/29/shortcode-roadmap-draft-two/
 updated Shortcodes API] look like.

 I don't see how the proposed API change will impact the implementation of
 `[caption]`. The legacy `caption` attribute never supported HTML (which
 AFAIK was the reason for the switch to the enclosure syntax) and the newer
 syntax is still valid according to the proposed API.

 What would we need to do to get such a filter included as soon as
 possible? The current workaround for `[media-credit]` (replacing
 `img_caption_shortcode` is a hack I'd be really glad to be rid of).
