Comment (by schlessera):

 @afragen I'd say it is actually an issue in the plugin that causes the
 redirect. Basically, the plugin does a "web-request-only" operation when
 it is not actually dealing with a web request.

 That being said, there's a general assumption with WordPress that the code
 is only ever run in a web server context, so it is an easy trap for plugin
 developers to fall into... which means it might make sense to fix it from
 within Core.

 However, if this is to be fixed in Core, I would suggest fixing it in a
 more general way by checking for the `cli` SAPI, not for WP-CLI
 specifically.

 I have to admit that I ignore what the possible combinations of use cases
 vs environments are, though, so I'm a bit worried we will just break
 something else in the process.
