 Hello @theMikeD. Thanks for the ticket. Yes, I believe you're correct.
 `$raw_excerpt` passed to `wp_trim_excerpt` filter is empty if `$text` is
 empty. In my PR above, I placed `$raw_excerpt = $text;` below the
 `apply_filter( 'the_content' )` because I still believe that
 `$raw_excerpt` should be processed by that filter. Others can chime in
 their thoughts regarding this.
