Marking as high priority regression for 1.21.

All hot drama aside, this is a very frequently used feature that ContentHandler
just broke out of core without any discussion. Okay, thought it was a minor bug
that could be fixed along the way, a simple mistake to make. But as we know now
it is very much not a bug (maybe originally, but it has become an irreplaceable
feature that until actually replaced, must not be removed).
