Comment (by gregstorkan):

 I'm sure I must be missing something but would it not work to just
 sanitize after the `add_option()` call inside `update_option()`? I don't
 know how to use SVN so I posted a [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/pull/3676 pull request on GitHub] but since `add_option()` would
 re-sanitize the value after it gets filtered anyway, why would it break
 the filters to sanitize after them in `update_option()` as well?
