 Replying to [comment:67 Otto42]:

 > but multisite instances exist with hundreds of thousands of sets of
 tables. Those sites might need special handling at some future point. It
 has not happened yet, but it is certainly possible.

 Multisite instances with hundreds of thousands of sets of tables aren't
 going to be automatically updating, are they?

 In any case, this is all orthogonal to the main issue, which is user data
 privacy.
