Replaces the iris-load changes part of #4835,
So, re-presented as a separate issue which should be much simpler.
TBD: reform + add the other parts of that logic, in subsequent PRs.
NOTE:
I think that, whilst we are targetting a feature-branch, it isn't generally appropriate to add whatsnew-s.
So, we can sort out how to announce+explain it all when we merge back the FB.
Deferring the changes also probably avoids a whole lot of trivial conflicts whenever we do merge main-to-FB or vice versa.
