Pre-Merge Checklist
Before merging this PR, please go through the following list and take appropriate actions.
If there are breaking changes, please STOP and consider the following:
Ideally all of the PRs involved in breaking changes would be merged in the same day to avoid breaking the folio-testing environment. Communication is paramount if that is to be achieved, especially as the number of intermodule and inter-team dependencies increase.
While it's helpful for reviewers to help identify potential problems, ensuring that it's safe to merge is ultimately the responsibility of the PR assignee.
