Comment:

 Sorry that this one fell by the wayside, @dustwolf.

 I agree with @westonruter that it's more preferable for an error to occur
 when a class is missing to clearly indicate that there is a problem.
 Because there have not been additional requests for this in the last 6
 years, I'm going to close this out as a `wontfix`.

 Since this ticket was created, the PHP Site Error protection feature
 shipped in WordPress 5.2, which prevents the site from showing a blank
 white screen and provides a means for site owners to access their site
 through by activating a recovery mode.
