In [37888], the comment text was initially updated, however an opportunity to make the text less trivializing of actions that users will take was missed. To quote Helen Hou-Sandi: "It's important not to trivialize actions that are perfectly reasonable for a user to find tricky (where to go to log in is not exactly intuitive, even with the rewrites we have now)."
The text of the comment now reads:
> Hi, this is a comment.

`dbDelta()` compares the index definitions against the result of `SHOW INDEX FROM $table_name`. This requires a specific format so indices are not unnecessarily re-created. This format wasn't ensured, until now.
* Parse the raw index definition to extract the type, name and columns so a normalized definition can be built (#20263, #34873).
* Standardize on uppercase types (#34871) and on 'KEY'. 'INDEX' is only a synonym for 'KEY'.
* Escape index names with backticks (#20263).
* Normalize columns: Ignore ASC and DESC definitions (#34959), remove whitespaces (#34869) and escape column names with backticks (#20263).
* Add backticks to all index change queries (#20263).

When upgrading to `utf8mb4`, `TEXT` fields will be upgraded to `MEDIUMTEXT` (and likewise for all other `*TEXT` and `*BLOB` fields). This is to allow for the additional space requirements of `utf8mb4`.
On the subsequent upgrade, after the `utf8mb4` upgrade, `dbDelta()` would try and downgrade the fields to their original size again. At best, this it a waste of time, at worst, this could truncate any data larger than the original size. There's no harm in leaving them at their original size, so let's do that.

Multisite functions use the term "blog" to refer to what we now call a "site," e.g. `get_current_blog_id()`. These functions are here to stay because of our commitment to backwards compatibility. What we can do is set the documentation straight.

Adds a new table to the database schema (`wp_termmeta`), and a set of
`*_term_meta()` API functions. `get_terms()` and `wp_get_object_terms()`
now also support 'meta_query' parameters, with syntax identical to other
uses of `WP_Meta_Query`.
When fetching terms via `get_terms()` or `wp_get_object_terms()`, metadata for
matched terms is preloaded into the cache by default. Disable this behavior
by setting the new `$update_term_meta_cache` paramater to `false`.
To maximize performance, within `WP_Query` loops, the termmeta cache is *not*
primed by default. Instead, we use a lazy-loading technique: metadata for all
terms belonging to posts in the loop is loaded into the cache the first time
that `get_term_meta()` is called within the loop.

It's pretty easy to run over the `option_name` length, which causes undefined behaviour when inserting and retrieving options. Increasing the length from `VARCHAR(64)` to `VARCHAR(191)` significantly reduces the risk of this occurring.
Because `option_name` has a `UNIQUE` index, we can only increase it to 191 characters, rather than 255. The index can only use a prefix of 191 characters, so will incorrectly restrict long different strings that have the same prefix, if we make the column longer.

[32814] introduced a routine to split shared terms, which was run during the
regular WP database upgrade. This turned out to be problematic because plugins
are not loaded during the db upgrade (due to `WP_INSTALLING`), with the result
that plugins were not able to hook into the 'split_shared_term' action during
the bulk split. We work around this limitation by moving the term splitting
routine to a separate process, triggered by a wp-cron hook.

This change does the following things
* Allows utf8mb4 for the MySQL extension
* Re-runs the utf8->utf8mb4 conversion for single sites, this will do nothing for tables already converted
* Re-runs the utf8->utf8mb4 conversion for global tables in multisite when the environment supports utf8mb4
* Removes upgrade_420() calling as upgrade_430() will perform those changes now instead
The index shortenings should have still taken place on utf8 sites previously, so there's no need to run those again.

* Replace mu_dropdown_languages() with wp_dropdown_languages(). wp_dropdown_languages() is now populated by the translation API.
* Remove wp_install_load_language() and allow load_default_textdomain() to switch a core translation.

There are a few places in core that were preventing this from working by explicity setting `$wpdb->suppress_errors` to `false`. Instead, they should inherit the value that existed before errors were suppressed.
This allows Multisite unit tests to run without explosive database errors, and allows `$wpdb->suppress_errors` to be overridden all the way down the chain.

The exceptions to this are update_post_meta() and add_post_meta() which are often used by plugins in POST handlers and will continue accepting slashed data for now.
Introduce wp_upate_post_meta() and wp_add_post_meta() as unslashed alternatives to update_post_meta() and add_post_meta(). These functions could become methods in WP_Post so don't use them too heavily yet.
Remove all escape() calls from wp_xmlrpc_server. Now that core expects unslashed data this is no longer needed.
Remove addslashes(), addslashes_gpc(), add_magic_quotes() calls on data being prepared for handoff to core functions that until now expected slashed data. Adding slashes in no longer necessary.
Introduce wp_unslash() and use to it remove slashes from GPCS data before using it in core API. Almost every instance of stripslashes() in core should now be wp_unslash(). In the future (a release or three) when GPCS is no longer slashed, wp_unslash() will stop stripping slashes and simply return what is passed. At this point wp_unslash() calls can be removed from core.
Introduce wp_slash() for slashing GPCS data. This will also turn into a noop once GPCS is no longer slashed. wp_slash() should almost never be used. It is mainly of use in unit tests.
Plugins should use wp_unslash() on data being passed to core API.
Plugins should no longer slash data being passed to core. So when you get_post() and then wp_insert_post() the post data from get_post() no longer needs addslashes(). Most plugins were not bothering with this. They will magically start doing the right thing. Unfortunately, those few souls who did it properly will now have to avoid calling addslashes() for 3.6 and newer.
Use wp_kses_post() and wp_kses_data(), which expect unslashed data, instead of wp_filter_post_kses() and wp_filter_kses(), which expect slashed data. Filters are no longer passed slashed data.
Remove many no longer necessary calls to $wpdb->escape() and esc_sql().
In wp_get_referer() and wp_get_original_referer(), return unslashed data.
Remove old stripslashes() calls from WP_Widget::update() handlers. These haven't been necessary since WP_Widget.
Switch several queries over to prepare().
Expect something to break.
