 * `library_call_linter()` can detect if all library calls are not at the top of your script (#2027, @nicholas-masel).
+* Linters with logic around the magrittr pipe `%>%` consistently apply it to the other pipes `%!>%`, `%T>%`, `%<>%` (and possibly `%$%`) where appropriate (#2008, @MichaelChirico).

+  + `unnecessary_concatenation_linter()`
+  + `unnecessary_placeholder_linter()`
 * Several linters avoiding false positives in `$` extractions get the same exceptions for `@` extractions, e.g. `S4@T` will no longer throw a `T_and_F_symbol_linter()` hit (#2039, @MichaelChirico).
