Comment:

 I attempted to apply the attached patch (43842.diff) against current trunk
 (7.0-alpha), but it does not apply cleanly.

 Patch results:
 - src/wp-includes/post.php → hunk failed (.rej created)

 Since the patch cannot be applied, testing is not currently possible.
 Because of this, keeping `needs-testing` is not meaningful until the patch
 is refreshed and rebased to trunk.

 Removing `needs-testing` and adding `needs-refresh`.

 Also noting that this ticket is quite old (~8 years) and proposes a
 refactor/cleanup rather than addressing a regression. It would be helpful
 to get reporter/maintainer feedback on whether this enhancement is still
 needed before investing time refreshing the patch.
