Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 I have a few concerns about this patch:

 1.
 {{{
 || ! isset( $original['host'] )
 }}}

 I totally see how it makes sense to not attempt to redirect if
 `$original['host']` is missing, but I found contrary evidence this use-
 case is/was intended to be supported via #6890.

 If `$original['host']` ''really'' is allowed to be empty, we'll need to
 make sure it's set like we do for `path` & `query`.

 2.
 {{{
 || ! isset( $original['path'] )
 }}}

 Will break for valid & well-formed URLs like: `https://example.com?p=100`

 `parse_url()` will not set the `path` key, but `query` (`p=100`) is still
 deserving of canonical redirection.

 ----

 What if we add...

 {{{
         if ( ! isset( $redirect['host'] ) ) {
                 $redirect['host'] = '';
         }
 }}}

 ...below...
 {{{
         // Notice fixing.
 }}}

 ...and then let it do what it normally would to figure things out?
