This means that we need changes to the XML dumps schema; these changes will likely NOT be backwards compatible. Initial discussion will take place here: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T199121 For background on MultiContent Revisions and their use on e.g. Commons or WikiData, see: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T200903 (Commons media medata) https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T194729 (Wikidata entites) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Multi-Content_Revisions (MCR generally) There may be other, better tickets/pages for background; feel free to supplement this list if you have such links.
