Comment:

 Hi @apermo, apologies for the delay in responding to your ticket.

 I haven't been able to replicate your issue. The following unit test does
 not appear to generate any PHP warnings. I think this has been fixed by
 #43977. Feel free to reopen if you are still encountering an issue.

 {{{#!php
 <?php
         /**
          * @ticket 44304
          */
         public function
 test_create_item_does_not_issue_warning_when_terms_is_empty_string() {
                 wp_set_current_user( self::$editor_id );

                 $request = new WP_REST_Request( 'POST', '/wp/v2/posts' );
                 $request->add_header( 'content-type', 'application/x-www-
 form-urlencoded' );
                 $params = $this->set_post_data( array( 'categories' => ''
 ) );
                 $request->set_body_params( $params );
                 $response = rest_get_server()->dispatch( $request );
                 $this->assertCount( 0, $response->get_data()['categories']
 );
         }
 }}}
