Comment (by wonderboymusic):

 In [changeset:"34569"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="34569"
 Comments: in `WP_Comment::get_children()`, accept an array so that the
 values for `format`, `status`, `hierarchical`, and `orderby` can be
 passed, instead of just `format`. The defaults for `get_comments()`
 include `status = 'all'` and `orderby = ''` - which is no bueno.

 For threaded comments, we need comments to be retrieved within bounds, so
 logged-out users don't see unmoderated comments on the front end, etc.

 Updates unit tests.

 See #8071.
