Comment (by jrf):

 The problem I have with this kind of handling is that WP is slowly turning
 into a "every function handles every type of input"-engine instead of
 supporting the documented functionality.

 This will only set us up for failure in the future what with PHP getting
 stricter all the time.

 I'm not advocating that WP should become as strict as PHP, but at the very
 least, let's only support the intended/documented functionality and not
 make every function a catch-all for any input type.
