 For background information see #41689 & https://github.com/WordPress
 /press-this/issues

 For now I'm going to close this as `maybelater`. A decision was made in
 4.9 to remove it from core and into a plugin whose development can proceed
 with faster iterations than core. I recognise that some features may have
 been disabled in that process, some features which some people may have
 relied upon even. Discussing those issues in the Github repository is the
 best way to move those issues forward - "Reverting" it isn't necessarily
 going to fix the underlying reasons why they were disabled in the first
 place.

 I do not anticipate that the decision to remove it is going to be reversed
 now that 4.9 has been released, I'd encourage you to get involved with
 https://github.com/WordPress/press-this to help move it forward and make
 it better than it's ever been able to be in Core.

 In the event that core needs some changes to make the move to the plugin
 easier for existing users, new tickets for 4.9.1 to make the transition
 smoother will be accepted.
