 being several hundred tickets in the milestone, I'm erring on the side of
 re-milestoning anything that I can't immediately look at and be confident
 it doesn't have any unexpected side effects.

 good, but I'd like to give it further investigation. In particular,
 changes that touch the `$wp_query` global need to be carefully considered.

 as opposed to `Future Release`: only tickets that I think can
 realistically be reviewed and merged in 5.2 are there. So, barring
 unforeseen circumstances, I think it's reasonable that this enhancement
 can be committed in WordPress 5.2.

 Thank you for the prompt response @pento.  That seems reasonable and I do
 understand the hesitation to muck with WP_Query.  I'll ensure this ticket
 stays in a committable state through the 5.2 cycle.  Can we please just
 keep an eye on it when the time comes? There are more tickets that I'd
 also like to shepherd through the process, but this ticket illustrates
 some of the challenges the contributors to this component have been
 facing.  I don't want Feeds to be a 2nd-class citizen.  I feel the
 component used a lot more than people realize and I would like to see the
 project address some long-standing issues in 2019.
