** There is a minor breaking change in the ProperEscapingFunction sniff from PR #​624. The escaping_function property can no longer be overruled via custom rulesets. Please remove any usages of the property in custom rulesets.

** Composer now requires the phpcodesniffer-composer-installer plugin per #​583. Note: If you either include it in the "require-dev" of your composer.json, use another Composer PHPCS plugin, or run bash commands to register PHPCS standards, please remove it from those sources to prevent interferences or version constraint conflicts.
