De-prioritising as the train is unblocked now.

matmarex raised the priority of this task from High to Unbreak Now!.

(I'm closing this task, contrary to our usual practice in VisualEditor, so that folks looking at T206656 can tell that it's not a blocker, since this is the usual practice for release blockers.)
