  Allows get params in ajax requests e.g.

  ([dev/core#5833](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/-/issues/5833):
  [34346](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/34346))**

  The USPS REST API is changing in January 2026. This change ensures CiviCRM
  will play nicely with the changes.

  ([33605](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/33605))**

  Adds a URL param to disable dynamic CSS loading. Provides a get out of jail
  card if you somehow add some quirky variables to your active stream (like tiny
  tiny font)

- **CustomField - Cleanup help text

- **CustomField - Allow number fields to use checkbox/autocomplete widgets  
  ([34170](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/34170))**

  Enables numeric fields to use checkbox/autocomplete widgets (already supported
  in practice, it just wasn't an option on the form).

- **Make option value and group fields importable
  ([34126](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/34126))**

  Makes it so one can import option value and group fields.

- **Allow int in `CRM_Utils_Time::setTime()`
  ([34062](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/34062))**

  token via OAuth. This can be used to used to update related records.
