Pppery added a comment to T400738: Vanished users should not be reassigned mentors.

The other option is to, when the mentor of a blocked or locked user is removed from mentorship, to silently drop the relationship at the time of reassignment, not at the time of the block or lock.

Pppery added a comment to T399996: Add an AbuseFilter variable to see if an edit originated using the MediaWiki API.

The AbuseFilter extension doesn't have a formal WMF team maintaining it; instead per https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developers/Maintainers it is supported by several volunteers (including Matěj Suchánek who commented above).
