Comment (by SirLouen):

 I've hunted down the "Allowed Statuses" intent to [11029]

 From what I can read in the whole history of commits down to that
 changeset, this started to track where the user left in the last visit. At
 some point with the introduction of the menu "Installed Plugins", someone
 decided that "All" should be defaulted, but left the list of "Allowed
 Statuses" without any particular additional purpose.

 Also, we must address

 commented back in the day]

 Now, those allowed statuses only serve as a hindrance to avoid an
 extension like this, to add new Statuses as @mindctrl has pointed out.

 About the Unit Tests, @sukhendu2002
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/63529#comment:28 first, please
 read this]. For a hook filter, they are not really needed, or they need a
 major revamp to address more precisely the intent of this filter. As I
 commented on the other ticket, you can take an initial template as an
 inspiration, but or they are manually curated to death or better leave
 them undone.
