Comment (by imath):

 I agree the behaviour of load_textdomain is not new, what's new is
 `_load_textdomain_just_in_time()`. As it's loaded early, it prevents
 custom text domain to be used, unless you unload/load for each plugin
 which is really too bad...

 The patch won't change anything to the order of `load_plugin_textdomain()`
 or `load_theme_textdomain()` because as soon as you find a mo file in
 `WP_LANG_DIR . '/plugins'` these functions are returning true and never
 look into the plugin's language directory.
