Thanks Mark,

I should've tried the mightly google site prior to the post. 


Judging by that query, and a different query where i searched for wp_redirect exit the specific issue of exit has not been handled in the threads,
I'd like to propose that this change be made into the core, the patch is simple, I can send it in, unless there is a good reason not to have it in the core.

quite a few of the issues from your first google query wouldn't even have happened, if we used exit() right after header(). 

I'll make a plugin for now, test it out on our site, and then submit the patch if we decide it needs to be submitted, it's  a simple one liner though :).
