Comment (by netpassprodsr):

 The outcome of #49751 as of 4/9/2020 is the following:

     Milestone 5.4.1 deleted
     Resolution set to invalid
     Status changed from new to closed

 which leaves the [47160] in limbo.
 I agree with the logic that this code change attempts to address.
 That said, until there's a formal endorsement that this code change will
 be remain in place, modifying the docs to fit a "volatile" code change is
 unwise at this point.
 My recommendation is to resolve this as "maybelater" unless a more
 appropriate workflow/handling of these cases should be followed.
