Express v5 blockers
Problem
_I started writing this as a reply to https://github.com/expressjs/express/issues/4920#issuecomment-1575599117 but the issue was locked just before I finishing typing my comment._ @dougwilson Thanks for your continued work on express.

I will need to take some time to gather everything, and will of course no longer be working on Express.js code

Hi @rmacklin sorry about that, I didn't think there would have been any more real replies, and it was quite out of date anyway, so your new issue is probably for the best. I can certainly work on writing it down. I just suggested Zoom would be easier because it is fast and a conversation. I will need to take some time to gather everything, and will of course no longer be working on Express.js code while I do that. It seems like that is what folks want to see, however, so I think that working on documenting everything out is a higher priority than working on the code at this point. Please let m
