Comment:

 Dev note was just published for this:
 https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/07/01/external-library-updates-in-
 wordpress-5-5-call-for-testing/

 I also compiled a list of plugins all plugins with active installs that
 appear to be utilizing the library in their code:
 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bYVY3mea2lpv-
 DA8Ic71v2QJtrRyMKY1GW2JpPGCOC4/edit?usp=sharing

 I created this list based off the following three searches:
 - https://wpdirectory.net/search/01EC5AQHXB3AYV3MPGFTF1H23B
 - https://wpdirectory.net/search/01EC5AVG3B1VBY61C98Q9ATTSR
 - https://wpdirectory.net/search/01EC5AWJ934M90R5ADHPGRTFAT

 I sent a draft of an email to the plugin team for them to relay to those
 plugin authors as they feel appropriate.
