+	 * Wrapper that imitates Vue.createApp(), to make the Vue 2 -> Vue 3 migration smoother.
+	 *
+	 * Vue.createApp() is introduced in Vue 3. This returns an object that provides part of the
+	 * same API, so that we can swap out Vue 3 for Vue 2 without needing to change callers.
+	 * After the Vue 3 migration, this function will stay as a wrapper around Vue.createApp()
+	 * that adds the i18n plugin and the error handler, because those can't be added globally
+	 * in Vue 3.
+	 *
+	 * To create and mount an app that doesn't use Vuex:
+	 *     var RootComponent = require( './RootComponent.vue' ),
+	 *     Vue.createMwApp( RootComponent )
+	 *         .mount( '#foo' ); // CSS selector of mount point, or DOM element
+	 *
+	 * To create and mount an app with Vuex:
+	 *     var RootComponent = require( './RootComponent.vue' ),
+	 *         store = require( './store.js' );
+	 *     Vue.createMwApp( RootCompoinent )
+	 *         .use( store )
+	 *         .mount( '#foo' );
+	 *
+	 * @param {Object} componentOptions Vue component options object
+	 * @return {Object} Object that pretends to be a Vue 3 app object, supports .use() and .mount()
