Previously, when a plugin updated its suggested privacy policy text, an admin notice was shown on all screens in the Administration Panels. That was done in order to make sure that administrators were aware of it, so that they could update their policy if needed. That was a very heavy-handed and intrusive approach, though, which leads to a poor user experience, and notice fatigue.
An alternative approach is to use bubble notifications in the menu, similar to when plugins have updates that need to be installed. That still makes it obvious that something needs the administrator's attention, but is not as distracting as a notice.
The notice will still appear on the Privacy page, though, since it is relevant to that screen, and provides an explanation of why the bubble is appearing.

Previously the pointer overlapped the menu in order to draw attention to the fact that it applies to both the `Tools` and `Settings` menus. That caused a conflict if the menu was collapsed, though, because the icons were covered by the pointer and therefore inaccessible.
Additionally, minor tweaks were made to the text order and formatting. The order of the two sections was swapped in the title and paragraph, in order to match the order of the corresponding menu items. The spacing around headings and paragraphs was tweaked to remove extraneous whitespace.

Whenever an admin initiates a download or email of a personal data export, a fresh copy of the file is generated. Previously, a new filename was used each time, which could lead to situations where a URL that was emailed to a data subject is broken.

The personal data export and erasure tools allow plugins to register their own callbacks, in order to add additional data to the export and erasure processes. Previously, these were registered without specifying a constant identifier in the array of callbacks. Using mutable integers makes it difficult for plugins to modify the callbacks of other plugins, though.
Using associative array keys instead provides a covenient and reliable way to identify and interact with another plugin's callbacks.

Multisite networks have a variety of use cases, and in many of them single-site administrators are not trusted to take actions that affect the whole network, require making decisions about legal compliance, etc. By default, those actions should require super admin capabilities. Plugins can be used to override that behavior if a particular site's use case calls for it.

This runs immediately after the data export file has been successfully created, allowing plugins to introduce some workflow customizations. For example, a plugin could password-protect the export file, for peace of mind, even though the CSPRN in the filename makes brute force attacks nearly impossible.

The primary means of protecting the files is the CSPRN appended to the filename, but there is no reason to keep the files after the data subject has downloaded them, so deleting them provides an additional layer of protection. Previously this was done from `wp_privacy_generate_personal_data_export_file()`, but that does not guarantee that it will be run regularly, and on smaller sites that could result in export files being exposed for much longer than necessary.
`wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files()` was moved to a front end file, so that it can be called from `cron.php`.
This introduces the `wp_privacy_export_expiration` filter, which allows plugins to customize how long the exports are kept before being deleted.
`index.html` was added to the `$exclusions` parameter of `list_files()` to make sure that it isn't deleted. If it were, then poorly-configured servers would allow the directory to be traversed, exposing all of the exported files.

A new global multisite table `wp_blogmeta` is added to the database schema, and a set of `*_site_meta()` API functions are introduced.
The implementation fails gracefully when the new table is not yet available, which may happen especially shortly after the core update, before the network has been upgraded to the new database schema. The presence of the table is detected once and stored as a global setting on the main network.
Core does not yet use site metadata, but there are several use-cases to be implemented or explored in the near future, and it allows plugins to extend sites with arbitrary data, which will come in particularly handy with the upcoming REST API endpoint for sites.

This new dashboard widget is shown on WordPress sites which are powered by a PHP version which WordPress considers outdated, in order to inform site owners about the resulting problems and to explain how to upgrade to a supported version. An education page for that purpose has been previously created that the widget links to. The link is translatable so that localized versions of the page can be referred to as they become available.
The nag follows the example of the Browse Happy dashboard widget and is only visible for administrators, or network administrators when using multisite. To determine whether it needs to be displayed, a new wordpress.org API introduced prior is called that handles the version logic in a centralized location.

For a number of years, the "Available Widgets" section has been off-limits for
keyboard users. Now it can be used also with the keyboard. This change introduces
also some improvements for assistive technologies.
- makes the widget toggles focusable and adds an `aria-expanded` attribute to indicate their state
- improves the toggles labelling to clarify context (add/edit)
- changes the controls to choose a sidebar from list items to buttons
- adds an `aria-label` attribute to the buttons to clarify their purpose
- adds an `aria-pressed` attribute to the buttons to indicate which one is selected
- improves color contrast of the selected button
- uses a `wp.a11y.speak()` message to announce to screen reader users when a widget has been added to a sidebar
- moves focus back to the toggle button when closing a widget

JSHint inherits a license from JSLint that includes the clause "The Software shall be used for Good, not Evil." WordPress's license specifically allows grants the freedom to run the program, for any purpose. Please note, this is not an encouragement of evil. Rather than doing something evil, how about learning to love those around you. Instead of tweeting lies and saying people are "Not Good!", help your neighbor. In the words of Lin Manual Miranda, "Love is love is love is love is love is love is love is love, cannot be killed or swept aside."
This replaces JSHint with esprima, a part of the larger jQuery project, and a custom wrapper for some basic error checking within codemirror.
The existing JSHint configuration is kept in place in case someone wants to use that, but they can only do so for Good.
