Comment:

 The above patch refreshes the previous one against trunk and fixes few
 docblock issues.

 **Testing procedure for testing both `doing_shortcode` and
 `current_shortcode` new functions**

 In your theme, declare the following shortcode / callback function:
 {{{#!php
 <?php
 function worg_get_testing_foo() {
         if ( doing_shortcode( 'testing-bar' ) ) {
                 $return = '[' . current_shortcode() . '] is currently
 used';
         } elseif ( doing_shortcode( 'testing-foo' ) ) {
                 $return = '[' . current_shortcode() . '] is currently
 used';
         } else {
                 $return = 'Not called from a shortcode';
         }
         return $return;
 }

 function worg_testing_foo_shortcode( $atts ) {
     return 'Shortcode? ' . worg_get_testing_foo();
 }
 add_shortcode( 'testing-foo', 'worg_testing_foo_shortcode' );
 }}}

 ----

 In the content of a post, I added the following shortcode: `[testing-
 foo]`.
 Which returns: `Shortcode? [testing-foo] is currently used`

 ----

 In my theme single.php file, I added the following PHP snippet:
 `echo 'Shortcode? ' . worg_get_testing_foo();`

 Which returns: `Shortcode? Not called from a shortcode`

 ----

 **Conclusion**

 It really works fine! I can imagine plenty of implementation use cases for
 this ♥️
 Adding `needs-dev-note` workflow keyword.
