 In plugins like [https://github.com/Automattic/amp-wp AMP] and
 [https://github.com/xwp/wp-customizer-blank-slate Customizer Blank Slate],
 a stripped-down version of the Customizer is presented where all except
 for the plugin's own panels, sections, and controls are registered.
 However, when the Publish Settings section is unregistered then there is
 no way to change the previous drafted changeset to publish, since the
 section doesn't exist. The gear icon likewise is presented but it never
 becomes enabled.
