Applied. Thank you!

I'm not closing this bug report in case you want to add Org Drill at
some point. Otherwise, you can also close it, and open a new bug report
for Org Drill.

Still no word from upstream, so I'm closing the bug report.
Hopefully I'll open a new one for org-drill soon.

Added emacs-org-drill and its dependency emacs-persist. emacs-org-drill
was previously included in emacs-org-contrib, but was removed in 2019
and placed in a separate melpa package.

Thank you!

Would you mind splitting this into two different patches?

I think titlecase is not warranted here:

  Persist variables between Emacs sessions

@code{user-emacs-directory} may be more appropriate here.

Could you re-order inputs alphabetically?

You need to put two spaces after full stops.

Sorry for the delay Nicolas, unfortunately I caught the flu and had to
put this on hold for a while.

I've found a few bugs in emacs-org-drill since submitting, and upstream
doesn't seem to be responding to bug requests at the moment. I'm going
to just resubmit emacs-persist for the time being and wait until I hear
back from the emacs-org-drill maintainer before resubmitting that patch.
