PluginsArea: what it touches
In DevelopmentKind: in v2.1.246,
In DevelopmentSection of the release
A flag.value(name, fallback) host operation is listed for plugin hooks with an implementation that always returns false.
What
Plugin hook engines gain a flag object with a value(name, fallback) call, backed by a new host operation flag.value that is listed unconditionally in the plugin operation table. The implementation shipped alongside it returns false, so nothing a plugin asks for comes back true in this build.
Details
The flag object is sealed; plugins cannot add to or replace it.
Neither the operation nor the object exists in the previous release.
Evidence
flag.value
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
