Title: Additional test coverage for rest_update_82019) » Additional test coverage for rest_update_8201()

So… I'm not sure what you would like to see happen here, considering you said

Theoretically we could have update tests for this, but it'd be a lot of work compared to what is equivalent to “use the literal schema definition instead of hook_schema()”

I guess this is to determine whether we do want test coverage for this after all?

IMHO its always worth to write tests, sometimes it just has a lower priority give the costs vs. profits.

Version: 8.3.x-dev » 8.4.x-dev

Drupal 8.3.0-alpha1 will be released the week of January 30, 2017, which means new developments and disruptive changes should now be targeted against the 8.4.x-dev branch. For more information see the Drupal 8 minor version schedule and the Allowed changes during the Drupal 8 release cycle.

Status: Active » Closed (won't fix)

After six months there have been zero additional bug reports about this. We can always add more tests indeed, but the cost of this has been shown to not outweigh the benefits.

I think it's fine to "won't fix" this issue at this point.
