The work in #46130<\/a> is showing good progress towards addressing the security concerns, if you’d like to follow development progress on this feature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A handful of smaller bugs have also been fixed in this release, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n WordPress 5.1 has many changes aimed at polishing the developer experience.
