My area is full of moveable middle-of-the-road crosswalk signs proclaiming either "STATE LAW: [yield sign] to [pedestrian silhouette] in crosswalk" or the same sign with "... [stop sign] for...."
They haven't said anything about a change in the law, but if they're going to do so exclusively via sign (the actual sign change, from yield to stop, was supposed to be last year, no idea if the law really did change with it), then we have to assume the rest of the sign is also accurate, making any pedestrian not actually in a crosswalk fair game.
