Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 Wondering if it would be possible to ship the new versions of jQuery/UI on
 a new script handle? `jquery3`?

 then continue by getting the default themes to use the new version if they
 use jQuery. Then we can patch the older version and continue using it in
 wp-admin until we can upgrade or deprecate its use entirely.  What happens
 when a page enqueues old and new versions or how do we handle that?
