That patch still has WIP in the title. Unlikely that it will get merged
until that changes.

So deprecation policies do not apply in this case? Why not?
If deprecation policies were broken, that's not really the LTS cycle that
caused it. The two policies don't really reference one another.
Ideally we can figure out a better way here.

To be honest, I don't see that LTS has anything to do with this, so I
think we should leave it out of the discussion. To me this is a clear case
of an interface being accidentally broken that subsequently was not fixed.
Anyway, the respective ticket got the "MW-1.27-release" tag by now and a
patch (
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/361776) was submitted by Legoktm
(Thanks!) to highlight the issue in a test. It would be great if somebody
could merge the patch.
