Comment:

 @Collizo4sky I'm aware of the issue, and it's covered well in #8857

 Unfortunately many plugins expect the exact string "0000-00-00 00:00:00"
 Which is where the backwards compatibility issues come in, we can't simply
 change it easily.

 Further discussion should occur on #8857 in order to reduce as much
 duplication as possible.

 > Invalid default value for 'post_date'.
 If the correct sql modes are set (as they are during the WordPress
 install) then that warning shouldn't be hit, if you're getting that error
 from within WordPress (rather than through a sql import or other sql
 application) then extra details would be appreciated on how you're hitting
 it.
