Comment (by johnbillion):

 This is a good suggestion, but I ''think'' the reason the hooks and
 filters API doesn't first check the callback function with `is_callable()`
 is for performance reasons. Filters can be applied hundreds and even
 thousands of times on each page load, so even micro performance is
 important.

 A good place to start would be to add an `is_callable()` check and then
 run some benchmarks to see if it impacts performance.
