Comment:

 @harveyfloyd Good news: It is already possible to modify the default list
 of file types WordPress will allow you to upload. Check out the filters
 `upload_mimes` and `wp_check_filetype_and_ext`. Here's an example of a
 plugin that uses those and might meet your needs out of the box:
 [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-extra-file-types/ WP Extra File Types].

 Given those workarounds, and given that this change is not critical for
 the vast majority of WordPress users at this moment in time, I'm walking
 back the severity property.
