You could still do it on combat status changes.
Events for entering combat (used to?) fire right before combat lockdown goes in effect.
So in theory you should be able to respond to changes in combat status, just not make any changes after combat has started.
Yep, this is how it's always worked. You can freely make changes when PLAYER_REGEN_DISABLED fires, including changes that are not allowed in combat like hiding secure frames, equipping items, and now modifying these particular cvars.

This change should not affect "auto toggle nameplates for combat" addons at all.
