Comment:

 Thanks for the patch @campusboy1987! The approach looks good to me.
 I see no reason why this shouldn't be pushed into the next major WordPress
 release.


 @birgire Thanks for reviewing the patch too :) FYI we generally don't mind
 where the patches come from, as long as they have enough path in the
 filename for context (ie. `wp-includes/post-template.php` and `src/wp-
 includes/post-template.php` is okay, but just `media.php` is discouraged).
 Creating patches from the develop repo instead of the build repo is
 especially helpful when CSS is involved though, as it then modifies the
 originals rather than the built files - that's the only scenario where the
 develop repo is really a requirement for contributions, and even then, we
 can usually make it work!
