Comment:
This makes sense to me.
Using this sample plugin code, for example:
{{{#!php
<?php
add_action( 'init', function () {
non_existing_function();
} );
}}}
I get a `200 OK` response, unexpectedly, even though PHP is dumping out:
> '''Fatal error:''' Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function
non_existing_function()
@swissky Can you open a pull request to facilitate collaboration and
automated checks?
