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.

Make the $post argument to get_post() optional, defaulting to the current post in The Loop.

on a theme that has a default background image.
The onus is on the theme to omit the default background-image from style.css,
to allow the user to remove the default background image. Or, the theme can
specify a background-image for the body selector, as long as they then zero
it out for body.custom-background, like so:
{{{
body {
background-image: url( ... );
}
body.custom-background {
background-image: none;
}
}}}
This allows the theme to be compatible with the custom background feature
but also gracefully degrade if the background feature is disabled.
This is the same behavior as 3.3; setting a default image has simply been
made more prominent in 3.4. Reverts [21013], also parts of [21001].
see #20448 for change and discussion history.
see #20132, which will now be marked as invalid.
Also, per previous changes in #20448, the custom-background class should not
be shown when only a default color is in use.
fixes#20448.

* <style> will appear if there is a default image registered. This is the same as 3.3.
* If only a default color is registered, it still assumes it is in the stylesheet, and no <style> will appear. This is a change from 3.3.
* <style> will continue to appear as before if there is a custom background color or image. This is the same as 3.3.
* This then allows for a default background image with background-image: none, overriding style.css. This is new.

* Specify default background colors for the bundled themes.
* Change the default custom background callback to only operate on saved values, rather than default values.
* Prevent an unsaved default value from overriding a manually modified style.css file.
