 > My preference would be to only consider Composer as built-time tool for
 now to build a 5.2-compatible class map that WordPress Core can use. Then
 use this to modify Core so that it can make better use of the autoloader.
 I expect his to have a positive impact (directly and indirectly) on the
 code quality and architecture of Core.

 properly designing something like this are met yet.
