Comment (by nacin):

 The issue is that WP_Screen is not necessarily the current screen. Only if
 we are relying on the global hook_suffix do we know that we can actually
 glean something off of the URL. Otherwise it may be a convert_to_screen()
 call for a meta box (for example) that doesn't even belong on that page.

 I've thought about ways to tweak the architecture of WP_Screen to allow us
 to indicate when we *do* want to calculate things off $_REQUEST, because
 of the current order of operations prevents us from knowing at
 WP_Screen::get() time that we want it for the current screen. We had a
 usage of set_current_screen( $hook_name ) in an ajax request but found we
 could get rid of it, rather than fixing this root problem.

 I think what we need is WP_Screen::ajax( $hook_name ), which will use
 ::get()'s innards. Definitely 3.4.
